After a bit of whirring and wheezing, machine decides it is broken and after summoning machine attendant, she also agrees that the card is stuck and it's not coming out (+engineer will take 4 hours to arrive to open sealed unit)
Well done Amex!! It was obvious to me what would happen, and now, a week after receiving the useless metal card, I have to wait another week for a replacement along with the hassles of changing all my numbers all over again.
Fool me once etc
Never stick your metal card into a machine, mate.
