Cash in the big apple

We have a Nationwide Flex account and want to take advantage of getting cash out of the ATM machines for free. Do we have to use the machines in the banks ? If so which banks, I am guessing that if we use a machine in a Deli etc we will be charged a fee ! Anyone had any experieces ?

    Most, if not all ATM's will charge you a fee of $1.50 - $2.50 if withdrawing cash in the US. Nationwide won't charge you, but the issuing bank will. Free banking is not the norm in the US like it is here.

    Where in NY are you staying? I was lucky in Queens they had a HSBC and I wasn't charged at all from what I can see.
