Fred Habacht Posted March 3, 2017 Report Share Posted March 3, 2017 I used my Capital one 360 debit card...and requested 4000 pesos. The machine dispensed 800 pesos. Went into the Banco....they showed no emotion and told me to call my bank. There will be a 10 day investigation and I may not get my money back....... Be careful.

Guiness Posted March 3, 2017 Report Share Posted March 3, 2017 Same thing happened to us at the ATM at Integrity Plaza. Called our bank - there was no problem in them getting us our money back. The bank explained that the investigation will show exactly the amount of money that the machine dispensed. Relax, it'll be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

exyyz Posted March 4, 2017 Report Share Posted March 4, 2017 I had the same thing happen at the Scotiabank machine. By the time I got home 15 minutes later, the amount had been credited back into my account. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Plaza Interlago behind Pemex on libramiento where Integrity medical clinic USED to be located. Quality Care Clinic is still there along with Lake Taco, Vancouver Wings, Dr. Berenice's vet practice, Tio Sam and other businesses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fred Habacht Fred, I am betting that you got 8 of the $100 peso notes. The machine thinks you got 8 of the $500 peso notes. This happens when someone at the bank changes out the $100s for the $500 when they stock the machine. It looks kosher to the bank and the theif didn't steal from them. It happened to us before in Guadalajara at Bancomer. It was eventually resolved. BTW maybe I should video the bills as they come out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred Habacht Posted March 4, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2017 I figured the same thing with the bills...but Cap One says it will take ten days to audit my claim. Fred Habacht Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mainecoons Posted March 4, 2017 Report Share Posted March 4, 2017 Fred, I'm still a little confused as to where this machine is. Did you has this problem at the machine in Centro Laguna Mall? Is this a machine problem or a crooked bank employee problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wanderer Posted March 4, 2017 Report Share Posted March 4, 2017 if the amber light is on down to the left of where the money comes out you will probably not get the full request as that means the machine is low on cash and they ration it until it is replenished by the bank staff. this could be the problem.

Fred Habacht Posted March 4, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2017 Not if my Cap one account was debited for the amount I asked for rather than the amount I actually received. Fred Habacht Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Shrall Posted March 4, 2017 Report Share Posted March 4, 2017 A bank branch has nothing to do with an ATM on their premises. It is serviced and balanced by a 3rd party entity. You've seen the armored trucks swapping out cash canisters guarded by the guy with the shotgun. They pull a total that shows the amount dispensed since the last refill and the amount that should be left in the old canisters. New canisters and the total cash inside are loaded into the machine. They take the old canisters back to the office, count the cash and balance it. They'll know there was a problem since the count will be off. When you do a transaction you enter your PIN and the amount you want. The request flies out to your bank. If the PiN is good and you have sufficient funds your account is debited and the bank responds to the ATM wih a thumbs up to dispense. The money is taken from your account before the machine begins dispensing cash. If there is any sort of error the physical ATM can sense it is supposed to send back a full or partial reversal to your bank. Money is credited and the net transaction matches the amount of cash dispensed at the ATM. In this case there does not appear to be a hard failure so your bank must contact CI Banco and make a claim. This is a manual process and will take time. Often your bank will give you provisional credit while they wait on the claim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mainecoons Posted March 4, 2017 Report Share Posted March 4, 2017 In general that is true but I've personally seen the employees of the CI Banco branch in Centro Laguna servicing the ATM there. I'm assuming that's the machine being discussed here. Another observation: The 100 peso note is not the same size as the 500 peso note. Curious as to how the machine could process the former through the feed mechanism for the latter. Not suggesting it can't be done, just wondering why it wouldn't cause problems or shut down. I seem to recall a number of reports of shortage problems with this ATM. Perhaps it is a good idea to video what comes out of it in the event of being shorted.

bournemouth Posted March 4, 2017 Report Share Posted March 4, 2017 CIBanco handles that machine themselves which is why it is often out of money early in the weekends. Money only gets loaded during banking hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
