Money Quandry...!!!!!

[Norrie]

Hiya, Theoretical question time now.... And bearing in mind, it might have happened oop narf, Scotland even.....what would happen if say someone went to a hole in the wall to draw, say, £20 out....and got £100...then went home to check the bank statement, which might say, that only £20 was drawn out...would the best bet be to inform the bank, if indeed this did happen.....might be a drink in it for someone...if this actually happened...allegedly.....mibbes.....

norrie wait to see if the bank contact whoever rec'd the money ,if anyone did !! they can see who was using the machine and if you refused to return it they could contact the police and it would be theft .so wait and see, if i was whoever it was

id keep it, it doesnt say anywhere that if it did actualy happen you must report it/give it back or atleast to my knowledge

[Leon Roskilly]

Invoice the bank for administration, and safe-keeping of their money, plus a daily rate of interest that applies until they are able to arrange a suitable collection time convenient to both parties!

 

Keep the charges reasonable and inline with the banks own charges (eg £20 for writing a letter, £25 for unauthorised overdraft fee etc).

I actually work for a bank and this has happened more times than you know. Basically there's four cassettes in each ATM, two for £20's and two for £10's. If the operator puts them in the wrong way round then the machine has no way of knowing that it's given out the wrong notes. The first time they would realise is when the machine emptied or someone reported it.

 

A record of who withdrew money is kept on the banks system and quite a few ATM's now have miniture cameras in them too.

Norrie, where is the machine you used????
