Have you reconciled your ATM fees?

I'm having trouble understanding the cash card fees (mind you this is pre-screwup). Yesterday I made a withdrawl and was left with $289.00 in my account. Per Mindark's request I stopped in to empty the card today and my request for $280 was denied. As was my request for $260. I thought 'oh-oh' the processer has gone tits up.

Not the case, however, as my request for $202.00 was processed (the $2 is the local ATM fee) - and my receipt read $27.74 available. What? I withdrew another $22 and was left with $.09.

I'm no math wiz but the final transaction is pretty clear - $5.65 in fees (plus local ATM fee) to withdraw $20. There's no transparency in these fees, and I have a feeling I'm getting worked over pretty good. Can anyone shed some light on this?

Why $5.65? And where is my missing $53.61 (assuming the fee for withdrawing $200 was also $5.65 + $2 local) ?

There is also a fee for denied withdraw attempts afaik.

of course, it would be too difficult for them to program the numeral display to show the maximum possible withdraw amount :p

This whole card is a rip off from the start to the end if you ask me ...

at very least MA should more careful to what other companies they do business with.
First the magazine fiasco and now this
Glad i bought a withdrawal but never used it(no need to)

Not sure why you had trouble Dub but I think the failed transaction fee had something to do with it /shrug. Prolly something to do with alpha particles bouncing off that big arch thing you have there too...
I've had pretty good luck, move the ped, 10 minutes later im at the atm pulling it all out all at once minus the 4.95 fee for having ped on my card and the 2 dollar transaction fee.

OHHHHHHHHHH. I just read the client loader, now I know why.
BLAME CANADA!
