Do you use ATMs?

I can't remember the last time I used one.

Occasionally I'll ask for £10 cashback in the supermarket but I very rarely use cash; and I have mobile internet banking for when I want to check my balance or for moving money around.

Re: Do you use ATMs?

Hi

Yes, I use cash, rarely a card.

I am careful where I use them though.

I normally only withdraw cash at the village Post Office.

Very occasionally usually when on holiday as cash it easier for small amounts like an icecream or newspaper.

Re: Do you use ATMs?

I never use them and rarely use cash, when I need any cash I get it from the Post Office which is near than an ATM and the PO needs the business to stay open.

Some years ago I was on holiday in Wales with my son who went to get some cash from an ATM, it gobbled up his card and he was unable to get it back until a week later when we returned home. After that I wouldn't use one.

I had my card gobbled up by one once too. I had to go to my bank with ID - all sorts of problems.

Re: Do you use ATMs?

Only on rare occasions. I usually get £10 cashback when buying my groceries, never carry more cash than that. In fact the £10 note I got two weeks ago is still in my purse, as I have bought nothing but food, on my Debit Card.

Re: Do you use ATMs?

We need cash for bus fares so hubby gets some cash back when he goes into work and buys some juice for that night.

Other than that never have much money in my purse, don't know why I carry it around with me really.

Won't use one out in the street, but will go to the PO, the machines INside banks, or stores, or get cash back.
