Default Cash from bank counter

Yes and they first tell us blindies that come the new machines they will
have head phone sockets so we can use them then the time comes and they
remove them. It seems that all the banks now use a company called Link for
their machines and nobody knows where the accessible ones actually are any
more. A communication break down if ever there was one. I heard a
conversation inside the branch of a well known bank which hails from Spain ,
it went something like.
OK I'll be in x place all next week where is the nearest ATM.
Sorry sire we do not keep that information Download the Link amp on your
mobile and it will probably telll you. I don't have a smart phone. Oh,
everyone has one, sorry.

I suspect not. I have found most banks will only let you take cash out or
pay in over the counter if you actually bank with them.

There may be exceptions. ISTR the Post Office is slightly more forgiving
if you can be bothered to queue for an hour or two.

Cash machines are becoming increasingly rare in our North Yorkshire towns
and villages these days - replaced with empty former banks and crude OSB
boarding over the now quite literally hole in the wall.
