    https://hotcopper.com.au/search/search?type=post&users=brucetoutgun As a shareholder in Bendigo Bank and a customer of our local Bendigo Community Bank, why is pressure being applied to use the ATM at the front of the bank, no charge, and for all cash withdrawals to be charged $2.50 inside the Bank. Bendigo

    U should start a new thread on this topic!

    This is old tactics that was used with the introduction of ATM’s.
    Get used to the ATM at no cost, then force u to use this equipment by introducing a financial duress by charging a fee if u enter the bank.

    Since ur frightened to start a new thread, I will initiate the new discussion.

    Firstly, my background is as an Electrical Technician who used too initially be obsessed with this technology….my attitude has changed and I see it
    as a vulnerable technology.

    I would suggest that posters ignore the security spiel by any company and since most poster on HC are shareholders, considered it more like a lagging indicator! That is, that usually the security update comes after an intrusion is discovered!

    I would access this technology is only suitable to the general public to used for advertising, family connections and entertainment value - like partaking discussion on HC.

    This technology has no inherited disincentives to hackers, like the previous analogue technology where equipment was expensive and it was one of the prime reason to discourage hacking except for professionals.

    I try to keep my digital foot print to minimum and still prefer doing thing's by printed material!
    Tax, banking statement in a booklet…as a result I been switch banks that offer this more secure option.

    It has nothing to do with people preferring to do their business on the internet!
    It has more to do, that the company has invested money into this vulnerable technology and they need to justify the investment expense.

    If u think about it, if the usage of this technology was commonly accepted practice by BEN customer’s, there would be no need to implement any form of financial duress!

    If this company was profitable when many branches exited and paperwork was the norm, why is the board forcing clients onto this vulnerable technology!
