Wyoming legislation to limit ATM surcharge fees gets turned down

"This legislation, if enacted into law, would have had adverse affects," said Jeff Matthews, president of eGlobal. "It would have significantly changed the landscape of the availability of ATMs in Wyoming. … A considerable number of ATMs would have been pulled from the state and convenient customer access to cash would have declined significantly. Revenues derived from ATM surcharges would have potentially dropped by 25 percent, making it impossible for ATM operators to maintain the current level of ATM service."
