SOLUTION:

If the card was issued by Universal Capital Bank AD Podgorica, you need to call +382 20 481 440, or send an email to cards@ucbank.me, or visit the nearest Bank branch in person and report the theft or loss of the card.

‍

Immediately upon receiving the report, the Bank’s employees will block the card and submit a request for issuing a new card. Once the new card is produced, you will be notified when you can come to collect it. Note: When a new card is issued, the PIN code will be changed.

POSSIBLE REASONS:

• The amount you are withdrawing at the ATM or paying at the POS terminal is greater than the available balance on the account linked to the card
• The amount you are withdrawing at the ATM or paying at the POS terminal is greater than the set daily limits for card withdrawals or payments
• Error in the operation of the POS terminal or ATM
• The card is blocked

‍

SOLUTION:

• Increase daily limits for ATM withdrawals and POS terminal payments
• Try the payment again at another POS terminal if the merchant has more than one terminal
• Try withdrawing cash again at another ATM
• Check the card status with the Bank that issued the card

‍

NEXT STEPS:

• If the card was issued by Universal Capital Bank AD Podgorica, with an identification document, you can change the set daily limits by submitting a request for limit modification, as well as check the status of the card at any Bank counter.

‍

POSSIBLE REASONS:

• Error in the Operator’s system (Telekom, Mtel, One…)
• Connection error between the ATM, Universal Capital Bank AD Podgorica and the Operator

‍

SOLUTION:

• If, after both debit SMS messages, the available account balance is the same, there is a small chance that a double debit has occurred; it is more likely that the SMS was simply repeated due to a connection issue with the operator. Monitor the available balance after the next debit/credit SMS; in case of discrepancy, it is necessary to report the situation by calling 020/481-423 or sending an email to cards@ucbank.me so that Bank employees can contact you with instructions on the next steps
• If, after both debit SMS messages, the available account balance has been reduced twice, it is still unlikely that a double debit has occurred; more likely, the SMS was repeated, showing a reduced balance due to a connection issue with the operator and the Bank. Monitor the available balance after the next debit/credit SMS; in case of discrepancy (i.e. if after the next debit/credit the balance is not increased by the amount from one of the duplicate SMS notifications) it is necessary to report the situation by calling 020/481-423 or sending an email to cards@ucbank.me so that Bank employees can contact you with instructions on the next steps.

‍

NEXT STEPS:

• If a double debit has occurred on the account linked to the card, Bank employees will easily verify it and return the double-charged amount to your account

POSSIBLE REASONS:

• ATM malfunction, connection problem between the ATM and the Bank.

‍

SOLUTION:

• If the card was issued by Universal Capital Bank AD Podgorica, you need to call 020/481-423 and report that the ATM did not dispense cash, but you received an SMS notification of a debit from your transaction account, or send an email to cards@ucbank.me with a valid contact detail so that Bank employees can contact you with instructions on the next steps.

• If the card was not issued by Universal Capital Bank AD Podgorica, you need to contact the card services department of the issuing bank and report that the ATM of Universal Capital Bank AD Podgorica did not dispense cash, but that you received an SMS notification of a debit from your transaction account, or send an email to cards@ucbank.me with valid contact details so that Bank employees can contact you with instructions on the next steps.
