No decision yet to reinstate RM1 fee for ATM cash withdrawals

For the time being, you STILL won’t be charged a RM1 fee for making withdrawals at ATMs.

Defence Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob says the govt has not discussed bringing back the fee, which was waived at the start of the Movement Control Order.

He said, “Tidak ada perubahan. Masih lagi dikecualikan fee RM1 untuk setiap pengeluaran wang ATM tersebut. Jadi kita boleh enjoy faedah yang kita perolehi hari ini, iaitu pengecualian fee RM1 tadi.

This is after the govt decided to allow ATMs to revert back to their old operating hours, prior to the MCO.
