New fee for cash withdrawals sparks anger

Since the end of May, Kontanten has charged fees for cash withdrawals ranging from 15 to 25 kronor depending on the amount.

Anyone withdrawing money from a Kontanten ATM now pays a fee. A withdrawal of 100 to 200 kronor, for example, costs 15 kronor.

When the newspaper spoke to people at machines in Mora, the criticism was clear. One person described the fee as too damn bad.
