Seven Bank to discontinue ATM services for overseas issued MasterCard brand cards. 

Seven Bank, Ltd. announces that as of December 14th 2009, users of overseas-issued MasterCard brand cash cards and credit cards (including Cirrus and Maestro brands) will no longer be able to withdraw Japanese yen or perform balance inquiries at Seven Bank ATMs. 

Seven Bank discontinued the ATM services in response to a revision of conditions by MasterCard that does not sustain the economic viability of the services from Seven Bank's perspective. Seven Bank intends to pursue dialog with MasterCard on the revision of conditions in the aim of restoring ATM services for affected cards as soon as possible.

 Overseas-issued cards accepted at Seven Bank ATMs include:

VISA, AMERICAN EXPRESS, JCB, CHINA UNIONPAY, DISCOVER, DINERS CLUB
