The new Citibank ATMs that take the chip card hold onto it until after you've taken your money. I already accidentally left my card in a machine after taking the cash.

Wow, that's some bad UI. Wells Fargo ATMs require you to take your card before it gives you the money.

People learned the hard way what good UI was for this sort of thing -- by having bank clients complain about ATMs eating their card after they took the money and left the card in the slot.

I know, I was one of those before my bank got newer, smarter ATMs.
