   Again..  must have been your charm, perhaps?  :D   
      
   I did not know those ATM limits could be changed for each     
   individual.  Most bank plans have published hard limits for     
   withdrawals.   
      
   I haven't even used an ATM to withdraw cash for over 10yrs - I     
   seem to have plenty of physical cash from the people who pay in     
   cash at the shop.  My problem is depositing that cash so that I     
   can pay bills electronically.

    RM> the end of it but you can see how hving a 'reputation' can get   
    RM> you special treatment..   B)   
      
   Ah..   two ladies charmed by your presence.
