Re: いれてつないます - irete tsuna imasu
Yes,you are right.I think the basic meaning there is no cash dispenser (ATM) to put (ireru) the card in.
and I think this is a typo.
キャッシュ ディスペンサー にいれてつないます
キャッシュ ディスペンサー にいれてつかいます
= キャッシュ ディスペンサー に入れて使います。
it means "this ATM card is for use to put in cash dispenser. "

Re: japanese names and kanji?
This is a legitimate question. Naturally,"月" can not be pronounced "raito". Writer of "Death Note",Tsugumi Ohba, He said he chose the really unlikely name and pronunciation for main character.
