Shameless Couples Fight Inside Walmart Store As Their Children Scream In Fear ( Photo /
A disagreement at a Walmart store has led
to a serious fight between two couples in the
United States.
A fight between two couples inside a New
Jersey Walmart was so chaotic that young
children were left screaming and trying to
separate the dueling adults, Snappygist has
reported.
The sad incident which was captured on
camera and shared on video-sharing site
Liveleak shows two men throwing punches at
each other near the store’s jewelry section
while their wives brawl on the other side.
In the background, shoppers can be heard
yelling for the couples to stop. During the
melee two young children run up to the group
and try to break them apart. The kids can be
heard screaming as Walmart employees and a
female onlooker try to calm things down.
A Walmart spokesman told snappygist.com
that the fight happened Saturday at the
Union store on Springfield Road. It’s not
clear what sparked the brawl.
“We cannot definitely say why the fight broke out,” spokesman Charles Crownson told the outlet.
Check In Here Guys ! Just In Case “ATM
Swallows Your Card ” Here ’s What To
If the Automatic Teller Machine happens to
swallow your card during transaction, there
are certain things you are supposed to do.
There are steps to protect your cards and
what you can do if the Automatic Teller
Machine swallows your card, according to
snappygist.com
Wait for 10 minutes to restart: As
annoying as it may be, I suggest you
wait 10 to 15 minutes first before
doing anything. There is a good chance
the ATM machine software will reset on
its own and your card will spit back
out.
Take note of the time, place and
location: If waiting for 10 to 15
minutes does not resolve the issue, well
move on to this.Note down the time the
machine swallowed your card and try
to be as specific as possible. Note the
date, the place you are, and the type
of machine (if possible). For example,
is it an ATM outside a bank and/or
controlled and branded by the bank,
or is it a stand-alone ATM in the
street, or an ATM in a mall? Does it
have a name, brand logo, and/or any
other details?
Is there a number you can call on the
machine itself, or any helpful information
that may be relevant? If so, you should make
a note of it and have a quick look at the ATM
to see if it has been tampered with. You may
want to use your phone to take a picture of
the ATM and the numbers on it so you can
show a bank later.
Contact the bank account provider: The bank
or institution you use will have its own rules
and own definitions. Some will say you have
to raise a claim with the bank, others will say
that you have to raise an inquiry, and some
may say your account is frozen and freeze
your account until the matter is resolved.
It is not wise to contact the ATM provider
unless the bank you use and the ATM
provider are the same company. In this case,
your problem may be resolved a little quicker.
When you raise the issue with your bank, they
will often contact the ATM provider; but if
you raise it with the ATM provider, then they
will refer you to your bank and/or account
provider.
If you can’t find the bank associated with
the ATM, look for the contact number on the
ATM (there usually is) and call it for support.
You may be able to get a technician to come
to the location right away and deal with the
issue.
If ATM swallows your card while abroad
This is not a good situation as there may be
language problems and it may be difficult to
fix the problem on the spot, especially if the
ATM is not attached to a bank but is in some
other location.
If you are not in your home country, the
situation is more difficult as you may be
dealing with language problems and it may
not be easy to call up the bank on the spot.
Minimise risk; we suggest you use an ATM
outside of or, even better, inside of an
actual bank while travelling abroad. If the
ATM swallows your card, you can simply walk
into the bank or call for assistance — the
bank will be able to resolve the issue on the
spot.
Make sure you have a backup ATM card
linked to the same account or a different
bank account. If one ATM card gets eaten or
lost, you still can access your bank account
and get money.
How to prevent ATM card issues while abroad
Use ATMs inside of a bank branch lobby: If
the ATM card gets swallowed, you can enlist
the bank staff to resolve this for you. This is
much easier than trying to resolve the issue if
the ATM is in a remote area. So use ATM’s
attached to an actual bank if you can.
Enlist the help of a local to contact the
number on the ATM/ATM bank: If you are in
a foreign country, you may not be able to call
the ATM company/bank branch yourself. If
you are in a public area such as the metro,
mall, airport, try contacting the local security
or help desk. They may be able to contact the
bank for you and explain the situation. If
there is no security around or help desk close,
you may have to ask people around you for
help. Ask a local to call the contact number
on the ATM if you don’t have a working phone
and the language is not your own.
Know your bank’s policy regarding ATM card
problems while abroad: If you have ATM card
issues while abroad, it’s a good idea to know
your bank’s policy regarding this. Will they
send you a new card in a reasonable amount
of time for example?
Consider using a travel credit card while
abroad, especially when making large
purchases: Credit cards have better
protection, better exchange rates, and can be
rush-replaced within a few business days. If
you want to use it like debit card, preload
the credit card with money (above your
monthly balance and use it like an ATM card
to withdraw the cash).
