Cash machine asks for pin number twice.

How common is this? I reported it to the bank but they are also unsure as to why it asked twice.

No I didn't get it wrong. I ought to have been more precise with my query. The machine asked for it again as a security measure just after pressing the button for the amount I had selected?

possible tampered with cash machine ?

I don't know? The machine is in the bank and they had the engineer in this afternoon prior to me using it. The message was something to the effect "please re-enter your pin as an extra security measure placing your hand above the keypad to shield it from other users".

Ok thanks guys. Simply put it down to error unless I hear otherwise.
