ABN AMRO temporarily shuts down 470 cash dispensers due to explosive attacks
By MYBRANDBOOK
Due to growing number of violent ATM explosive attacks, ABN AMRO has temporarily closed down 470 cash dispensers with immediate effect. All cash has been removed from the machines.
In the past few months there has been a sharp rise in violent ATM explosive attacks, particularly targeting a certain type of cash dispenser used by ABN AMRO. The attacks are causing anxiety and unrest among individuals and businesses in the vicinity of the ATMs. As ABN AMRO puts the safety of the neighbourhood first, it has decided to shut down all cash dispensers of this type with immediate effect.
ABN AMRO had already closed dozens of a certain type of cash dispenser for the time being last week and over the past days it has shut down and emptied all of them. The closed machines, totalling some 470, are located all over the country; 380 of them are ABN AMRO machines and 90 are former ABN AMRO machines that had been remodelled into uniform yellow cash dispensers in recent months.
At another 400 locations, ABN AMRO has different types of cash dispensers. These will remain open for use.
This temporary emergency measure may cause inconvenience to people seeking to take out cash, but the safety of local inhabitants and businesses are of the prime concern.
