ATMs continued from page 3 If you feel crowded by anyone, ask him or her to give you more room. Always keep your PiN confidential. Itis best io memorize your PIN and discard any records of it. But, if you must keep a written record, make sure you store it in a safe place. Don't write it on the card. You will runa terrible financial risk if you lose your card of PIN. But, if you must carry it with you, disguise it so that no-one wili recognize it. Never lend your card to anyone. Never give out your PIN to anyone. Be especially wary of any salespeople who ask for such information over the phone. Remember the financial institution will not assume any responsibility for your losses if you voluntarily give out your PIN. ‘ If you don’t think your PIN is secure, change it. Most institutions will provide this service free of charge. If you have lost your card, report it immediately. Many financial institutions operate a 24-hour ~ emergency line so you can reach them 2t all times, Then, if anyone tries to use your card, it will be “swallowed” by the machine immediately, Don’ tleave your transaction record behind when you have finished at the ATM. It contains important information about your accounts and should be treated as an official record untii you get your monthly Statement. Until then, use the transaction record to update your own books. Lastly, take care to protect the card itself. Do not siore it near a magnet because it could descramble the informatica contained on he magnetic stripe. Women who carry purses with magnet closures should be especially careful. ; : As with anything elss. a few simple precautions will ensure that you get the most benefit from an ATM. — By Filomena Tamburri, Publications Co-ordinuor for the Canadian Co-operative Credit Society.
