| Has anyone else seen the tv commercials that try to get you to get your own ATM or public internet access points? What's the deal? |
The 'deal' is it's another GRQ scam... You have to pay the company that provides the machine a regular fee, plus you generally have to pay the store owner for the space to put it in. You maintain the thing, fill & empty it (CCW, anyone?), and get a small cut of the fees in return... Unless you hit pay-dirt as to a 'perfect' location that for some reason no major bank has put an ATM in, you will be SOL. As for public access internet terminals, that's a real waste. Public libraries provide the same service for free, plus you're competing with Kinkos & similar. Unless you can get it in an airport (or major train station, if you live in a mass-transit infested area), you'll loose money... |
