£1bn expected to be withdrawn from ATMs amid bank holiday celebrations
Saturday afternoon, Sunday and Monday may well be busier than usual for ATM withdrawals, Link predicts.
More than £1 billion could be withdrawn from the UK’s ATMs, as the King’s coronation is celebrated over the bank holiday weekend, according to an ATM network.
The forecast, covering the period from Friday to Monday, was made by ATM network Link.
As people geared up to celebrate, £735 million was withdrawn between Tuesday May 2 and Thursday May 4, marking a 9% jump on the same period last year, Link said.
