All card readers in every store in the country are currently not working.

Stressed-out customers around the country have posted complaints and pictures of long queues at store ATMs this afternoon.

An Asda spokesman tweeted: “We’re so sorry about this! We are aware of the issue and working to get this resolved ASAP.”
