Barclays ATM at Gatwick airport
Hi there, Can anyone advise if there is specifically a Barclays ATM (no other) at Gatwick airport (pref. North terminal)? I have seen a previous post on this web site (from a few years ago) which stated that there was. If this is still the case, where exactly is it ? Must be a Barclays ATM and Gatwick airport as I'm due to pass through this airport in April with a window of only a couple of hours between arrival and departure flights.
Many thanks.
Many thanks.

Barclays cash machines in both terminals: http://ask.barclays.co.uk/branchfinder/
Maps on the Gatwick web site which should give you an idea where cash machines are located: http://www.gatwickairport.com/at-the.../airport-maps/

I'm just curious as to why someone would want to fly specifically to the UK just to withdraw GBP from an ATM. Presumably the ultimate origin and destination are not in the UK, otherwise cash could be withdrawn some other time...
I guess the OP has a Global Alliance member bank card or something similar, as this would be the only reason to specifically target a Barclays ATM.

Get cash at Gatwick before taking an internal flight.

Hi All, (especial FT101) as I said I'm passing through Gatwick. I'm not travelling there specifically to draw out money but Barclays have advised me that I need to use a Barclays ATM machine in order to carry out a specific procedure with my card (and a new pin no. they sent me) and it apparently had to be done at one of their machines!

bcmatt had already checked Barclays web site, it only states that the nearest branch is 0.9 miles away from North Terminal in Horley (as I inputted the North Terminal post code) it doesn't list any cash machines at Gatwick airport. I had also previously checked the airport map on the gatwick.com web site and this only shows a cash machine located at Moneycorp Bureau de Change, that's why i'd posted on this web site to see if anyone could advise. Thanks for the advise though, much appreciated!

(And if any non-Brit is wondering why the native inhabitants of this board are unclear on where Barclays cash machines are situated, then for most purposes - i.e., drawing out cash - it's essentially irrelevant to UK card holders which ATMs they use, so long as they belong to a bank's network, as there are a number of 'convenience' ATMs that do charge.)

If you've been issued a new PIN for an existing Barclays card and need to activate it, it should in principle work at any ATM in the UK by choosing PIN Services and Unlock PIN. Can't guarantee it though.

For the life of me, I couldn't find recent confirmation that there's a landside Barclays ATM in the south terminal at Gatwick. The Barclays ATM finder seemed to indicate there was one airside. I decided to "explore" that map and found another one landside. I also found an obscure website (that I've since lost) that corroborated that info.
After visiting, I can confirm that it's in Zone H of the South Terminal check in. See one of the #3s in the "South Terminal Check In - Third Floor" section of the following map:
