My daughter is in Vienna and used her cash card in an ATM. It gave her a message that it could not access her bank and returned her card. She went to another machine and withdrew money. The next day I checked her account and both banks had withdrawn the money from her account. I checked and found there was a U.S. State Dept warning saying this was happening frequently and to notify your bank to file a protest. After I filed a protest with her bank the money was returned. Remember to check your bank balance if this happens to you and notify your bank ASAP.

I am living in Vienna, as well as my family/friends. I have never heard that something like this ever happend to anyone here. There is always a minimal risk that something goes wrong but ATMs in Vienna are for sure as reliable as (e.g.) in the US
