Another tip is, once you've chosen the withdrawal option, choose "other amounts" (key 9). Then enter a number not ending in 0 or 5 (why not hit key 9 again? ). You will then get an "error" message telling you which denominations are available at that machine. Then you can enter your amount.lmviterbo wrote:The only way to be sure that you will draw banknotes is by asking for odd multiples of 5. On those ATMs carrying fivers, I always withdraw 15 € at a time, so that 3 notes come out each time. Even on those, that is not guaranteed: some deliver one and one . So, yes, in order to withdraw the that will be used on the challenge prizes, it takes a lot of time.brewerhki wrote:In Finland we get only 20 and 50 euro notes (except few ATM's gives 10 euro notes) and only way to choose which ones you want if to decide which amount you get at once (like if you want 200 euro in 20 euro notes, you need to insert your card several times, otherwise you get 4x50 euro). I'd like to get information before testing the ATM as I think there is a cost on each withdrawal (and also less change to leave card inside ATM).
None of this lets you choose what to get, but it's still valuable information. I often do it to make sure an ATM isn't only carrying those pesky tenners, my least favorite lol. If I withdraw 40 or 50 euros, I want to make sure I get at least one , not just four or five .
