    I never thought they allowed it at any cashpoint but I could be wrong.  I've certainly never seen a cashpoint with a phone scanner, you have to insert the physical card

    ATMs with contactless? Santander have implemented this on their ATMs, other banks too but (it says here) often in branch only. 

    Would the fact that it's contactless always mean that using your phone via ApplePay/GooglePay is available as well as using a card?

    Santander used to have some, their website actually states all of theirs are contactless, but they seem to have reversed that.

    When I did it you had to enter PIN.
    So only saving was not putting car in slot...

    ...not "saving" as such, but able to draw cash without a physical card at all.

    I dont see why its so difficult unless the whole purpose of phone payments was to eliminate cash?

    Not clear exactly how your phone is not working.

    Are you trying to withdraw cash from an ATM using your phone rather than a card?

    Whose ATM is it and does it have the contactless symbol on an area of the ATM? 

    This one



    Any messages displayed? Any response from the ATM at all?
