PayPoint offers Counter Cash for free with no ATM fees
As bank branches close and many ATMs bring in fees, getting at your cash for free is increasingly difficult in many areas. So called 'cash deserts' have sprung up in many villages and residential areas, as large stretches have no access to cash - or only ATMs that charge - often fees of around £2, even for a withdrawal of £10. Now, convenience shops may have the answer. Around 30,000 shops across the UK now have PayPoint terminals, where customers can pay bills, drop off parcels, use energy credit vouchers, top up gas cards, electricity keys or Smart Meter cards. Now, a growing number are also offering cash - from 1p to £50 - without a charge, and without customers even needing to make a purchase. It's particularly useful for account holders who may have less than £10 or £30 in an account, as they can get smaller amounts out in coins, a bit at a time. PayPoint Counter Cash gives access to cash at thousands of shops across the country, as parenting blogger Men Behaving Dadly shared this week. He said: "If you're anything like me, you really lose your s*** when you finally find an ATM and it's one of those that fleece you for a £1.85 fee before you can get your own money out. Somehow, I've only just discovered that loads and loads of convenience stores with PayPoint (they're literally everywhere, only outnumbered by vape shops and Costa) offer something called 'Counter Cash.'
