On a couple of occasions, I've seen some people use the ATM for longer than three minutes while there's a long queue of people waiting to use that same ATM.

Today was one of those occasions. The bank wasn't open because of the holiday, so the only option was this one ATM as the other one was out of service. ( There are just two ATMs at the branch of the bank I went to.)

So in your opinion, how long is the acceptable time to spend at the ATM especially if there's just one available?

I feel strongly that even if a person is withdrawing N100,000, that amount can be withdrawn in less than 2 minutes if the ATM is functioning well.

Any ATM timekeeper?

I want to withdraw three hundred thousand naira while the machine dispenses only twenty thousand naira at a time. Tell me how to do that in three minutes. Don't forget all the selection of menus and sometimes slow speed of the machine.

That situation is understandable. But even then, you should be considerate to other ATM users.
