An ATM (Automatic Teller Machine<\/strong>), today used by everyone with a bank account, serves several purposes \u2013 for withdrawing cash, balance enquiry, fund transfer<\/em> and procuring a bank statement<\/em>.

Not to forget, ATM cards can be lost, or even worse, stolen, and pins can be forgotten. Is it quite a hassle, isn\u2019t it?
