Hi do you have an ATM card with a chip? A number of Mexican atm machines now will not allow you to withdraw unless you have a card with a chip on it. I have done a little research and many US banks have not changed over to the chip technology on their cards. My US bank has not. I live here in Playa and a month ago this happened to me. I tried my US atm card in Banamex, and a few other banks and could not get any $. I tried Bank Norte on the corner of Juarez and the highway and at that time they would allow withdrawals with non chip cards. I know the problem was chip vs non chip because my bank knows I live here and I know what I have for funds. Also, I was with a Mexican who had atm cards with chips and he had no problem getting cash out of the same machines that denied me cash.
