For a tip: if you're searching ATMs that give more notes by one take, this topic might be useful to follow: viewtopic.php?f=14&t=56673&start=15 . If you find and ATM that gives out only :note-20: , please inform about it in that topic!


In Finland ATMs are almost only Otto. ATMs that give out only :note-20: and :note-50: , so it's useful to share the location to those who want more notes! :D


Here you can find all :flag-fi: Otto. ATMs on the map: https://otto.fi/missa-otto/ . If you don't see the ATMs on the map, click "Näytä kaikki".

I´m in Finland for over a week now and back in Joensuu (was here also last week on Tuesday). In a local shopping center I saw an atm (otto) with a "big mouth" , probably a deposit machine. But it would only issue the standard :note-20: & :note-50:

Yes, it's an deposit ATM with also possibility to withdraw money with foreign cards. You can't just deposit money without a Finnish card. While you can deposit all notes, it provides only :note-20: and :note-50: .

Yes, there lives so few people, while it is a popular place on summers. Happily the city centre is full of ATMs. :)

Yesterday I was in the small village of Karkku, which even had a bank.
According to the signs at the door I believed they were open (10-16.30), but several times trying it kept closed.
Later I found out it is open 10-16.30, but Friday is the ONLY day......

Yep, that's how many small banks are open in the countryside, only few or one day a week. :cry: But that kind of bank would be suitable for change of notes, when most banks at least in cities doesn't change money without an account in that bank.

So if you want to be number 1 there, you go there on a Friday. But I guess you need to do that at least twice, because you need more than 100 notes (and I don't think they will change 1 :note-500: into 100 :note-5: )......

Yeah, earlier those have been normally working banks, but when people move out of those little villages and the usage of cash gets lower, banks don't anymore provide same kind of services everywhere.

For those who collect 'special coins' I have a box with them with me (although maybe some aren't very special to you).
Because I don't collect them myself, I don't have to make a living out of them, you can change them for ordinary coins (or notes, but they aren't ordinary 8) offcourse).

MDeen and myself have added 13 dots to our dot maps today! (well, OK, we still have to enter the notes, but you know how it goes)

We'll be at the meeting point shortly.
