Nullifi3d 4th Gear September 2, 2012 Share September 2, 2012 (edited) Had a discussion on HWZ regarding this. is the $50 min at most popular POSBs these days really needed? and whats their main purpose? Fast cash transactions at ATMs. They probably did some experiments to see how long it takes someone to punch in they amount versus a readily available button. And yes, people do take their freaking time at the ATMs. Edited September 2, 2012 by Nullifi3d Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sforester 1st Gear September 2, 2012 Share September 2, 2012 Its a fabulous idea.. i will welcome the idea of even 100 min. withdrawal. THat is why the DBS ATMs (min. 200 withdrawal) in Jurong Point is so queue-friendly! Checking account status and withdrawing $10 - 30 is really a waste of productive time...

Happily1986 5th Gear September 2, 2012 Share September 2, 2012 Had a discussion on HWZ regarding this. is the $50 min at most popular POSBs these days really needed? and whats their main purpose? 1.) Store more cash in the ATM so that it wont run out of cash before the next topup by CISCO? Allowing people to withdraw in denominations of $10 usually means that people withdraw about 2 to 4 pieces. Withdrawing in $50 usually results in most people taking 1 to 3 pieces. How many banknotes you can store in the cash cartridge? You go figure. 2.) Streamline the withdrawing process. Press pin, press language selection, press account selection and straightaway you just press the $50 option and hey presto, money. 5 to 10 seconds extra per head can snowball to quite some waiting time in a long queue.

Ladykillerz 4th Gear September 2, 2012 Share September 2, 2012 yes. i think need to revise to min. $100. what's the point of withdraw $10, $20, $50? walk one round in shopping centre and you need to withdraw again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TandemAssassin 1st Gear September 2, 2012 Share September 2, 2012 To be honest; who still draws less than $50 at the ATM these days? With the cost of things these days, won't he/she be hitting the ATM every (other) day? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
