Well it didn't let me have any cash, same thing at Barclays. It
didn't matter and now everything is online most frequently I withdraw
cash on Visa or MC then go online and pay direct because of not
wanting to pay interest. I don't know if its the same there but if
you draw cash on a credit card, interests starts right away, not the
end of the month.
