ATM in San Felipe?

Normally I purchase Pesos through my bank before I leave. While I like the door step delivery, the exchange rate sucks. The only real town I travel through on my way down is San Felipe. Where could I find a bank to use my Wells Fargo ATM card?

You can use your Wells Fargo Card at both banks in San Felipe. They also can be used at 7-11 And The Pemex station at the circle. I am a Wells Fargo Banker and have had no Porbs. using my card here. I prefer the banks just in case your card gets stuck they can retrieve it for you.

Nice to see a quote from Abbey,
I usually get pesos BEFORE crossing
into Mexicalli from the peso exchange
places, appears you may cross at
the East Gate, where I imagine there
are peso exchangeplaces, don't
know the exact difference in rates
bank vs peso exchange places

The Banamex on Chetemal has a ATM that you just swipe the card (actually insert it and remove it) so there is no chance of the machine keeping the card.
