ISLAMABAD: The Auto Teller Machine (ATM) card holders Saturday appealed the authorities concerned to ensure proper maintenance of the facility owned by public and private sector banks.
"ATMs are considered to be a source of relief for the consumers in need of fast cash, but they have in fact become a source of annoyance, particularly on salary days," a number of ATM card holder said while talking to APP.
Those, who often visit ATM kiosks to get cash, said they tried several ATM machines in the federal capital but failed to take money. This is particularly observed during the first week of every month when salaried employees have to withdraw money.
Messages like `Out of cash,' `Sorry for inconvenience,' `ATM is closed for maintenance, `Link is down' `Service is not available,' and `your transaction could not be completed due to software problem' are often seen flashing on the screen of ATMs," Sanaullah, an employee complained.
When the officials concerned are contacted, they often give unsatisfactory reply saying that the machines go dysfunctional owing to excessive burden.
