PARLIAMENTARY EARLY DAY MOTION
CASH MACHINE CHARGES (11 October 2005)

That this House condemns the sharp rise in the number of cash machines which charge customers for removing their money; notes that convenience machines placed at locations such as supermarkets, public houses, post offices, factories, amusement parks and service centres charge customers in the region of £2.00 for each transaction, with the number of machines charging rising each year; further notes that overall this is costing an estimated £125 million a year, hitting those on low incomes hardest; and calls on the firms operating the machines to remove these charges.
