Popularly known as an automated teller machine (ATM) or cash machine, the electronic machine helps banking consumers to withdraw cash, deposit checks and even update passbooks. Apart from this, an ATM helps banking consumers to check their balance and change their pin of passwords at any time during day or night. Also, in an ATM, the requirement of a banking staff is not required. How does this ATM function? A banking consumer, having an ATM card -- a plastic ATM card with a special serial number, expiry date and a CVV number -- inserts it into the machine. Following this, the person waits till his or card is accepted by the bank and he or she is asked for the ATM personal identification number (PIN). After the person types his or her ATM pin, a screen with multiple options including cash withdrawals, mini statement, PIN change, cash deposit, fund transfer and others appear. The person chooses his or her option and presses enter. The machine then follows the instructions provided by the user and helps him or her solve the issue. Where are these ATMs located? The ATMs are located almost in every public place where people can access banking services. They are placed in every railway station, bus terminal, airports, shopping malls, educational institutions, etc. How secure are ATMs? ATMs are highly secured electronic devices that help keep the financial institutions their finances safe. Also, a CCTV camera is placed wherever an ATM is placed. Among others, in most of the ATMs, security guards are appointed. In case of emergency, banks take help of police to deal with the issue. More
