JEDDAH, 11 February 2003 — Officials expect that more than SR13 billion will be withdrawn from ATM machines in the Kingdom during Haj and Eid, Okaz said yesterday.
Banks have been feeding ATM machines with at least one million riyals a day.
Most withdrawals are expected during the first three days of Eid, with the largest amounts being taken in the Makkah area because of the large numbers of pilgrims there.
Banker Abdulraheem Al-Nahdi said more than SR177.8 billion was withdrawn from ATM machines last year, including SR18 billion during Ramadan..
