From NetEase:

When ATM swallows money, bank tells you to wait 2 days, but when a customer pretends it dispensed too much money, the bank arrives within 5 minutes

Summary: When Nanjing city resident Mr. Ding was depositing money and the ATM machine swallowed 10,000 yuan, he immediately contacted bank personnel and was told that he’d have to wait two working days before it could be dealt with. Afterward, Mr. Ding changed phones and called customer service again, pretending that the machine had dispensed 3000 yuan extra, and customer service arrived just 5 minutes later. The bank explained that when the machine swallows a customer’s money, this money is still safely in the machine, but when the machine spits out extra money, it affects the safety of the cash.

A tree without bark will necessarily die! A man without shame is invincible!

You’ll never find another bank as shameless as this in the world.

How is the bank wrong? Protecting the bank’s assets is equivalent to protecting the country’s assets. Is even such basic rationale lost on you?

My money is saved in the bank, how did it become the country’s?

You’ve all been trolled, they’re [referring to 中华一统天下 and a few others who defended him] just trying to get your attention. Haha~~~~~~~ What he’s saying is obvious.

NetEase, were you all raised by beasts, what is this “a certain bank”, are you not allowed to reveal the name of the bank? Are you afraid of being sued for libel, or is this kind of news simply fabricated by you guys?

Child, do you still need to ask which bank this is?? All the banks in this country are fucking like this.

enixasdf [网易黑龙江省网友]: (also responding to 无锡可儿)

Asking [for the name] is wasting your effort. You can boycott this one, but the other banks are the fucking same.

网易湖北省网友:

China’s banks are all bastards, without a single exception~

This bank has set a new Guinness world record for shamelessness in banking!

天天愚人节 [网易山东省东营市网友]:

A shameless bank, why can they demand back the extra money dispensed but I can’t demand back the money their greedy mouths have swallowed? Remember, next time just say, “I’m going to pry open the ATM”!

吉尔瓦伦丁 [网易辽宁省鞍山市网友]: (responding to above)

Then it won’t be an employee of the bank coming, but the JC.

网易辽宁省锦州市网友:

A person who takes extra money that was spit out is committing a crime, but is the bank committing a crime when it swallows money?

骑着砖家的老婆写评论 [网易广东省珠海市网友]:

China’s current situation:
1. ATM dispenses counterfeit money — Bank is not responsible.
2. Online banking robbed — Depositor’s responsibility.
3. Bank gave too much money — Depositor has obligation to return it.
4. Bank gave too little money — Not responsible if you already left the counter.
5. ATM malfunction results in less money dispensed — Customer’s responsibility.
6. ATM malfunction results in too much money dispensed — Customer theft.
7. Guangdong Kaiping bank president embezzles 400 million — sentenced to 2 years.
8. ATM spat out an extra 70,000 to ordinary commoner Xu Ting — life sentence.

The cash is safe, and from the bank’s perspective, it is indeed safe.

Strongly request that foreign banks enter the country, the national banks can all TMD go to hell.

网易山东省济南市网友:

Motherfucking bank~~~ This is what China is like~~~ Our great country~~~ You’ll never guess will happen next~~~

kaka3369 [网易福建省泉州市网友]:

Other people’s loss can be ignored, while one’s own interests are always first. This bunch of sons of bitches repeat all day long about providing good customer service but actually will never know what customer service is.
