I would not because an ATM is not going to sway someone's decision on whether to locate to a neighborhood or connect to people in their community. The point of the credit is to limit auto travel and foster community connections. A bank has tellers and offers additional services like extending loans. I also would not consider a vending machine a basic service (grocery) for similar reasons.

@Wei Jiang did you end up trying to submit this? I had the same question from a client. I realize it is a bit of a stretch but it might prevent someone from driving to an ATM/bank at another location.

Hi all, was the ATM as a basic service ever submitted to GBCI for review? I would love to know for a current project.
