Don't waste your money on ATM fees

Postby Yugocean » 15 Feb 2023, 07:10

Because there is fierce competition among banks these days, do not use any ATM that charges for withdrawing money from a debit card. In our country, banks even offer free ATM withdrawals to debit cards from other banks 2-3 times per month and do not levy any charges on their own debit cards at all.

In my country, there are no ATM fees for withdrawing money, but if you withdraw money from the bank, you pay a fee. I always withdraw money from the ATM to save on fees.

I always count my transactions and withdraw cash as per the free limits so have never paid any such fees

As it is now, the fees are so negligible that people try to overlook it. But it can put a drain on people's finances.

Paying fees while withdrawing on ATM is a waste of money, in most countries withdrawals on ATM are totally free of charges.
But in most African countries charges are applied when withdrawing money, but I think the best way is by making transfer to someone you want to purchase an item from, this cashless policy can help in reducing huge losses on ATM charges.

Why would you need an ATM if you have a Debit Card to buy with?

The only thing I am more concerned is to pay ATM fees of all my accounts but I may plan to close one of my account or cancel ATM card

This ATM fees is the reason some people don't want to have ATM cards. If you can avoid having an ATM card, it would just be fine.

True but in some cases you might not have a choice. Like in a situation where you are in a place where there is no access to your bank ATM or even any ATM at all, you might fall back to POS that tends to charge higher.

Everything is a trade off. I think using mobile wallets is better than using ATM. They charge way lower. Some even offer free transfers up to an extent.

In most places in my city there are no atms at all, or only the generic ones (not belonging to a specific bank), so if you need cash sometimes you have no choice but to use those even though they charge a fee.

Because you want to use cash.

We can take ATM for one bank account in case we have multiple bank accounts, and this will help us too

Here in my country we left ATM cards withdrawal only and only due to their high charges. They are charging much more, I used to be regular of getting this facility but suddenly almost all bank increased their per year charges which is much more for normal common Individual.

I have an ATM card but I don't know when last I used it. I don't need it because I can get cash nowadays using mobile money agents. Using ATM is more expensive.

Banks have in networks that don't charge fees or charge very little fees for transactions among themselves. Check if the ATM you want to use belongs to your banks network to minimize or eradicate fees.
