As you can see above, they both provide the date and time of the transaction as well as the location. Furthermore, the last four digit of the account number is shown along with the amount withdrawn and available balance.
Personally, I like the Wells Fargo ATM receipt more because it is better organized. Looking at it carefully, we can also see that everything is better spaced out on the Wells Fargo version.
The back of the receipts are quite different however.
The Wells Fargo version uses the back to show some advertisements for their website as well as their 1-800 phone number (compared to Bank of America showing the number on the front without the website address). Again, Wells Fargo’s receipt is better because the bank is able to use the receipt more fully than its competitor.

hahaha. I love the MoneyNing receipt!
Haha, great article

I hope you come back regularly.
Zach: I think I need to talk to Bank of America for possibly adding this to the back of their receipts.
Semih Gorgulu: Well, I’m really only letting you know where I used an ATM machine and that I bank with Bank of America and Wells Fargo. I appreciate the warning though

Modern Worker: Don’t be surprised if it REALLY happens
Hah! I WISH my Bank of America reciepts were legible like yours. Here in northern California everything is still ancient and we have some monochrome barely legible and faded scribbles of ink on every ATM or bank reciept. BOA really needs to modernize there branches on the West Coast.
Actually, I know exactly what you mean. I’m in southern california and most of the machines are VERY old. Monochrome is also the norm here. In Charlotte, NC (where their HQ is), the machines are extremely nice though (like the Wells Fargo ones).
The better of of ATMs.

Bank of America used to be a better bank. Those days are over. Wells rules!
