The First ATM in the World..

Talking about an ATM or automated teller machine, I am quite sure all of us are familiar with this device and all of us are user to process our account such as dispensing cash, accepting deposits, transferring funds, and providing information on account balances. But if your kids asking you; when an ATM machine firstly installed and where? I think most of us can’t answer this question.

Lucky me this day I did a blog walking and read “This Day in History” at Precious blog that The world's first ATM, invented by John Shepherd-Barron, was installed by Barclay's Bank in North London on June 27, 1967; however, a mechanical cash dispenser, arguably an ATM, was installed in New York how many years before that?

So if I get this question from my kids now I can answer correctly that ATM machine firstly installed at June 27, 1967 by Barclay's Bank in North of London!

Thanks Precious:)
