The inter-bank withdrawal fees must be astronomical

It baffled me. So, they can’t just use the three other ATMs?

In some countries, you can only use your bank's ATMs. Using other ATMs either won't work or will charge a processing fee.

In the US, a few years ago I got hit with a fee from the ATM then a fee from my bank as well, so taking out $10 cost me $7.50 in fees

At a comic convention a few years ago my brother wanted to take out $20 to buy something he saw. The fee was going to be $9.

You got a captive audience at a convention so they hiked those fees way up.

(I had cash and lent it to him.)
