ATM safety tips
Stay safe and be vigilant with our ATM fraud and safety tips
Choose an ATM in a well-lit area where you are visible and feel safe.
If you think that the ATM is faulty, cancel the transaction immediately.
Don’t use an ATM where the card slot, keypad or screen looks like it has been tampered with – it could be an attempt to get hold of your card.
Be cautious of strangers offering to help. They could be trying to distract you in order to get your card details or PIN.
Always shield the keypad with your hand when you enter your PIN.
If your card is lost, retained or jammed, call the Absa Stop Card Line on 0800 111 155 immediately to stop your card.
If you need assistance, ask your Absa bank official, but be aware of people posing as Absa staff. An Absa staff member will never ask for your PIN nor request you to swipe your card through a handheld card reader.
