Last night, my debit card was declined for the first time ever at a gas pump. My credit card worked though.”
RitaOK and ponygirl had problems also.
Just returned from bank ATM was able to make deposit and withdraw money, then went to Walmart and Walgreens and was able to use credit card at both. Live in Fla.
I did not have any issues with ATM this morning. Able to withdraw cash no problem.

A relative checked a couple ATMs in NC, and they worked.
Several different possibilities.
For an ATM transaction to work:
The machine must have the cash.
The bank account must have the needed balance.
The connection between the ATM and its owner bank must be working.
The connection between the ATM bank and the customer's bank must be working.
probably a few other pieces in the chain of events to complete a transaction, and ALL must be working for the transaction to complete.
Problems could be local, or dependent on particular banks, or on particular networks.
