My wife wihdraw 500,000 with an ATM card in my name and no money. I was in australia and contacted my bank and My wife contacted the local branch in bali. After 3 days I received a phonecall from my bank here to say it was all ok now and for my wife to contact the local branch there to pick up the money. She did and all was ok in the end, no major hassle. The bank that owns the ATM should have a local branch that operates it. Every ATM has a record of all cash transactions and they can check the records and see that the cash was not given. I would at least get back onto your bank and explain the dilema. I'm not sure how obligated they are to sort it out for you, but they probably have a much better chance then you, and after all, it's their card they issued to you to use which you do in good faith.
