您好，麻烦问一下，这里的取款机不认外国卡吗？附近有银行吗？麻烦您帮帮我，非常感谢！

Hello, may I ask — does this machine not take foreign cards? Is there a bank nearby? Please help me out, thank you very much!

Good to know
Aim for ATMs attached to Bank of China, ICBC, or China Construction Bank branches, and go during opening hours so staff can step in if something goes wrong.
