_________________________

To withdraw & draw out seem more familiar to me.
Never met Take out in relation to cash but the meaning really is present in the online dictionary's database. And Google confirms take money out of bank account.
Standard computer dictionary has only take out a loan.

'Take out (cash)' is a common expression Gheon, as is 'put in' when you make a deposit.

"My bank manager tells me that he would like me to put money in more often and take cash out less frequently."
