    Go and use a non-Nationwide Link cash machine (that doesn't charge for withdrawals).

    The machine owner will charge Nationwide for the privelage.

    In fact, withdraw £10 x 3 if you want £30. Then the ATM owner charges Nationwide a flat fee three times as well!!


    Nationwides costs then increase, So Mr Beale aka I would like to charge for "everyday banking services" reduces some savings rates and/or brings in some form of new charges. _pale_ ( not on cash machine withdrawals though.)

    There are some Abbey accounts where you can't take out less than 300 over the counter - 300 being the max amount you can get from a cash machine.

    Seems sensible enough really. I've never seen a customer feedback report that doesn't ask for shorter queues in branches, so moving routine transactions to machines is a no brainer. Same with paying bills, once they're set up it's much quicker to deal with them electronically rather than using the paper giro slips (and then they can be done online so no trip to the branch needed at all).

    I am one of those strange people that still prefers to pay my bills by cheque and across the counter. I like to have face to face contact with staff at my local branch as I still believe that is what they are there for. It may be quicker to pay bills electronically but if I start doing that then there is no need for me to go into my branch at all - maybe that is the whole point of the exercise??

    Just say you're disabled. If they question that, ask the jobsworth for proof they are a doctor who can make a clinical diagnosis.
