Chip and pin not working.

[Clutchy]

Today I tried to pay for some food in Tesco using my card, when it said insert your card, I did so, just like normal. Came up with error, please insert card again. Did this a few times, tried a few machines and it was not having it.

Tried the cash point outside, put it in and the machine made a few more clunky noises than normal (all 3 did) like a cd drive when the disk is scratched.

That let me put my pin in, then the options screen came up and if I selected money or balance it comes up with transaction not available, try another machine, did this on each one.


The chip doesn't seem damaged and the card is only 3 months old, last one was a year and a bit and worked fine till I lost it.

Never had any problems before, I'm with Santander if that helps and no you can not have any more banking info

Any thoughts or ways to fix?


EDIT: Yes there are funds in there.

Ring 'em and ask for a new card. You could try giving it a good wipe aswell, but they'll send you a new one if you ask nicely

I left my card down on my army base when I was on leave, so I just went online and ordered one of those funky picture cards (Barclays) new card sent out by the end of the week!
