I’ve done that before as I was a daft cnut. Bloody annoying. Fairly sure that’s what I did. I am also a daft c**t 2 hours ago, Rugster said: If you’re lucky and it wasn’t a busy ATM if no one lifted it your bank will refund it in a few days. It sucks the cash back in (matron) if not lifted within 30 seconds. It was 7 03 am at Sainsbury’s so there’s a chance. That would be ace. 1 hour ago, Bert Raccoon said: Used to work Customer Services for a Bank and normally if you call them and tell them exactly as above, you walked away without lifting the cash they'll most likely just refund you without checking as long as you've never claimed before. Worth a go I didn’t know that valuable insider info. Will give it a shot. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bert Raccoon Posted December 14, 2023 Share Posted December 14, 2023 In general, banks will give you the benefit of the doubt when it comes to small (in relative terms) amounts of money as its not worth the time and effort to investigate. Unless it's clear as day what's happened or you're ripping the piss and putting through claims for things constantly, they'll normally pay out as a one off 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hk blues Posted December 14, 2023 Share Posted December 14, 2023 Where I am the cash is dispensed first and the machine bleeps like f**k until you withdraw it and then you get your card back only once the cash flap closes. I'm not sure it would be possible to walk away without taking your cash unless you were really trying. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye but the folk who are the morons are the ones who walk on the road parallel to the pavement outside the shops you mention. Braindead. There's a good few zebra crossings in the one in Dumfries as well tbh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TxRover Posted December 14, 2023 Share Posted December 14, 2023 F**king step on light switches! Damn thing is non-standard, so there’s no easy replacement parts (plus the power cords in the U.S. are integral), and it’s taken to not latching in the on position about 60%+ of the time. This morning I had to “tap” it five times, while wiggling my foot, to get it to finally lock on/lit. It’s behind a side table, so not super easy for a normal turn switch. The damn outlet is switched, but the builder installed the switch in the most moronic location (and it’s a rental, no rewiring it). Anyone have a punch to activate switch? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I was referring to British colleagues cutting about a heated school with massive scarves on. I'm sure someone on here said recently an Italian guy at his work was off sick cause he'd caught a cold walking on a marble floor in thin trainers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carpetmonster Posted December 14, 2023 Share Posted December 14, 2023 Felt a large snotter at the edge of my right nostril so put my finger against my left to blast it out and it’s landed on my bottom lip. Hopefully not an indicator of how today’s gonna go. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would you want a foot operated light switch unless you had a very specific disability? Also placing it in the corner just seems daft, surely the only place should be by the door to get into the room 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
