Hi, this is Marsha Syms. Um, I’m calling about my bank card. I went to the bank machine early this morning, you
know — the ATM ... because the bank was closed so only the machine was open. Anyway, I put my card in the
machine and got my money out....but then my card didn’t come out of the machine. I got my receipt and my money
but then my bank card just didn’t come out. And I’m leaving for my vacation tonight so I’m really going to need it....I
had to get to work early this morning, and couldn’t wait around for the bank to open....Could you call me here at
work, and let me know how to get my bank card back? I’m really busy today, and really need you to call me soon. I
can’t go on vacation without my bank card. This is Marsha Syms at 555-1234. Thanks.
