ByHow to Fight Varo ATM Fees in 3 Easy Steps
The Automated Teller Machine (ATM) was invented in 1969 and has changed the course of banking. Varo Bank is an all-digital bank that provides FDIC-insured, full-service banking with checking and savings accounts, as well as other services. With an all-online bank, you may be wondering about how to access your money through ATMs. If you are curious about ATM services, what you might incur, and how to fight fees, DoNotPay can help.
How to Avoid and Appeal Varo ATM Fees
There are a few easy ways you can avoid . It is also possible to have fees waived or reversed if you know how to get in touch with the right people. Consider these different approaches:
- Use an Allpoint ATM. You can find the nearest Allpoint ATM by:
- Opening the Varo Bank app, going to Move Money, and going to Find ATM
- Using the Allpoint ATM Locator on the website
- Withdraw cash at the store. If a merchant offers cashback deals when using a debit card, follow the on-screen prompts to request that cash back. You can withdraw up to $500 per calendar day.
- Do an over-the-counter cash withdrawal. Many major banks or credit unions will allow you to withdraw cash. You will need your Varo Bank debit card and a valid government ID. Be aware that some banks may charge fees for this service.
- Appeal the fee. If you are accidentally charged a fee at an Allpoint ATM, you can contact the Varo Bank Customer Service Team in one of the following ways to request that the fee be credited back to your account:
- Email: support@varomoney.com
- Phone: 1-877-377-8276
- Request for a waiver. If you accidentally used a non-Allpoint ATM or it was an emergency, you may be able to request a waiver or reversal for the Varo fee. Some banks will offer a one-time waiver of fees as a courtesy, particularly for customers with a good track record. Fees charged by the operating ATM would have to be addressed to that bank.
An easy way to proactively avoid Varo ATM fees is to use a different ATM. Consider these differences between various ATMs:
| Allpoint Partner ATMs | Varo Bank partners with more than 55,000 fee-free Allpoint locations worldwide. These ATMs are located in stores like Target, Walgreens, and CVS, so they are easily accessible. If you use an Allpoint branded ATM, you will not be charged any fees. |
| Non-Partner ATMs | If you choose to use an ATM that is not on the Allpoint Network, you will be charged an ATM Withdrawal Fee of $2.50 by Varo Bank. It is important to locate the Allpoint branding on the machine before using it, to verify that it is indeed an Allpoint machine. If you do not see the branding, be aware that you will likely incur a fee from Varo. You may also incur a fee charged by the bank of the ATM you used. |
