Amount withdrawn from cash machines fell EVEN further last year and expert says usage will never return to pre-pandemic levels Number of cash withdrawals fell 6% last year after 40% collapse in 2020 The average Briton withdrew a third less cash last year than they did in 2019 One expert says number of withdrawals won't return to pre-covid levels People continued to use less cash last year with new figures showing the number of withdrawals from ATMs fell 6 per cent annually. A total of £79billion was withdrawn from cash machines in 2021 compared to £81billion in 2020, according to data by Link, the UK's main cash machine network. There was also a 7 per cent decline in cash machine transactions last year, which includes withdrawals and balance enquiries, falling from just over 1.6billion to 1.5billion. This means the average withdrawal per person in the UK was £1, 462 last year, visiting an ATM around 18 times. In 2019, prior to the pandemic, the average withdrawal per person in the UK was £2, 193 meaning the typical person is withdrawing two thirds of what they were before Covid-19, when the advice was to not use cash but contactless debit and credit card payments instead
