ATM fee survey

I too miss the BanBaj?o ATM at DIF. But there's another one, at the BanBaj?o branch in Plaza de la Paz. This ATM is less secure, as it's mounted in a window so that you have to stand on the street where anyone can see you withdrawing your cash. But practice Stratfor-level situational awareness and you should be okay. This ATM charges the same 18.56 pesos (with IVA) as the old DIF terminal.

As for fees at other ATMs, I've found Santander's to be lower than most. At the Mega last week, the charge with IVA was 25.52 pesos.

As Kasugie indicates, the amount one pays can ultimately depend on one's financial institution in the States. I use USAA and Fidelity, and both reimburse me for ATM fees charged by U.S. banks and by some Mexican banks. Through experimentation I've found that they fully reimburse me when I use Santander and BanBaj?o ATMs.
