You may also be charged a fee by the ATM owner when you withdraw funds. Learn more. A maximum of 5 ATM withdrawals a month and up to £200 per rolling month are free. Anything over the above limits is charged at 2% of the value of the ATM withdrawal or a minimum fee of £1 (whichever is greater). Learn more.
