My bank forces me to re-insert my card (or tap) for every transaction. Pay CC - insert card, enter pin, move the money to the CC, machine gives a receipt (or emails it) then the machine spins out the card. If I want cash I have put the card back in. I asked the teller today about why this is happening, they are as shocked as I.

I've seen machines that still hold the card so it can't be removed (even though it remains visible), and will only release the card before completing whatever transaction you've asked it to do. Like, you have to take the card before it'll tell you your balance or give you cash or whatever. This is 100% a "we're not taking responsibility for you leaving your card in the machine" thing.

Yeah, and I think those little traps can be defeated by thieves. Not sure of the details but it's not secure like when the thing would just swallow your card

[–] Nougat@fedia.io 4 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

That card lock isn't to keep someone else from stealing your card, it's to make you take it. As long as the machine will only do what you've asked after you take your card, the bank isn't responsible for your card at all.

I'm not familiar with their security but was just thinking about the little "click" that keeps your card in place while they read the "chip"
