Cash Machine Charges

EDM number 750 in 2005-06, proposed by Lindsay Hoyle on 12/10/2005.

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.

This motion has been signed by a total of 103 MPs.
