  • international law regarding ATMs

    I don’t know of any such law or even which organization would be able to make such a law.

    mentions a fee for non-SEPA cards

    Fee structure is indeed extremely intransparent in most cases. Generally, I have too look up ATM fees in my online banking access and I never know them beforehand. Iiuc, your bank and the ATM-operating bank roll the dice to find out the fees they each want to charge as part of the process of handing out your cash anyway.

    What bank or ATM operator has €200?

    I don’t know of ATMs dispensing €200 notes. If you’re a customer of a German bank, you may be able to get €200 notes over the counter.

    In any case, no store wants to receive notes above €100 because politicians and media have successfully created mental associations between those notes and money laundry/corruption/organized crime.

    Is it setup that way to be a kind of VIP privilege to enter for just that particular bank’s customers?

    You can usually enter with any card. This is a measure against homeless people sleeping (and sometimes urinating) in the ATM room.
