ABSTRACT:
An automated teller machine (ATM) receives a user's identifying card from a card user and deactivates the card in accordance with at least one user selectable condition. The ATM comprises an input device for entering data to the ATM and a card reading mechanism for receiving the card from the user. The input device is a keyboard associated with the ATM. Control means deactivate the card in accordance with the at least one user selectable condition when the card is received by the card reading mechanism and the user enters certain data on the input device. The control means include a local processor which is located at the ATM and which can communicate with a remote processor located at a bank site. The certain data may include information corresponding to at least one time period during which the card is to be deactivated. Alternatively, the certain data may include information corresponding to at least one ATM at which the card is to remain activated, with the card being deactivated for all other ATMs.
