Morgan Chase\u2019s own customers, whose maximum daily withdrawals are set depending on the client\u2019s account type. The bank has seen high-dollar withdrawals at both new and old ATMs, said bank spokeswoman Patricia Wexler.<\/p>\n<p>J.P. Morgan Chase\u2019s change last month affects roughly 18,000 automated teller machines nationwide and followed an interim step earlier this year limiting noncustomer cash removals at $1,000 per transaction. The earlier move was made as a temporary fix while the bank could make software changes to roll out the more stringent daily limit, Ms. Wexler said.<\/p>\n<p>She added that the bank \u201cfelt it was prudent to set withdrawal limits on all of our ATMs\u201d after identifying some large cash withdrawals from noncustomers.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>In 2015 we\u00a0warned readers to divest some of their assets out of bank accounts for this very reason, noting that bank glitches and\u00a0arbitrary holds\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.shtfplan.com\/headline-news\/this-is-why-you-need-your-money-out-of-the-bank-freeze-outs-glitches-and-holds-increasingly-locking-customers-out-of-funds_03272015\" target=\"_blank\">would begin to affect more and more depositors<\/a>.
