Hope we're involve in fixing this!

ATM Machines in Beijing updated!
If you have a foreign ATM card, you can only use it (if you're in Beijing or Shanghai) at Bank of China ATMs, or at the largest branch of the BoC in whatever town or province you're in.

If you're not in Beijing or Shanghai, you actually can't use ATMs; rather, you have to go to the " Foreign Card Counter" (if it happens to be open) and withdraw the money as a credit card cash advance.

The bank will not actually report this cash advance to your bank for a minimum of three weeks, which makes it easy for you to lose track and overdraw.

Important: Even if you're in Beijing and Shanghai, where the Bank of China ATMs that you use will immediately update your account balance, there are times when the machines will just crap out randomly and not accept your card.
