What are the power requirements for the ATM?

The ATM runs off of regular 1/10 power. All you need to do is plug in! What if the ATM dispenses the wrong amount of money? In such rare cases, the ATM user should call their bank to verify completion of the transaction and amounts processed. If the incorrect amount was dispensed and the error is verified by the customers bank a Regulation E claim should be filed with the issuer of the card used. The issuing bank will process the claim and issue a refund as necessary. All of our ATM’s have a phone number on the ATM to call if this occurs.

What is a “Regulation E Claim?”

A “Regulation E Claim” is a claim made by an ATM customer when an ATM is unable to dispense the requested cash. These are extremely rare but if this occurs the first step is to have the customer call their bank. DO NOT ever give the customer money directly! Have them call the issuing bank and file the Reg E claim.

Does ATM Theft occur often?

Statistics from NATIONAL FEDERAL ATM SURVEYS and the ATM insurance agency indicate a theft rate of approx 20 - 25 machines per year. Currently there are over one million plus ATM machines nationwide, therefore the odds of getting your machine stolen are similar to the odds of getting stuck by lighting.

If there is an error code on the machine, please refer to the operating manual in the appendix. If the issue still persists, call Carolina ATM for further assistance.

What do I do if the ATM says “System Unavailable” or “Configuration” for long periods of time?

This is typically a communication issue. Make sure your phone line is working by checking to see if there is a dial tone. If there isn’t a dial tone on your line, contact your phone company.

How can I prevent bill jams?

Be sure to inspect the cash before inserting into cash cassette. Many bill jams occur because of tears in bills, tape on bills, staples, or folds in bills. Also brand new bills tend to stick together so make sure to pull apart before loading.
