Can't they get an area manager to collect it from another shop and drop it off?

Get them to put it on your card. It is more hygienic for a start.

Practice like this should no be excused as acceptable.
Firstly they are a bookmakers, its supposedly how the business works. Secondly I could understand a bit and sympathise if it was £7k but £700 is absolutely pathetic, what a farce. |

You need to speak to the organ grinder not the monkeys , went into one of their shops to pick up a large football bet told there was no money in the shop but to come back the following day and they would have it.
Went back the next day only to be told there was nothing in the safe and the employee knew nothing about the bet despite them telling me the money would be there , then told me to come back in a couple of hours and they would open the FOBT's and see if there was enough to pay me out. Went back home phoned Ladcrooks head office explained the situation , phoned me back 5 minutes later and told me the money would be in the shop within 15 minutes and it was mind you the look on the two sourpusses behind the counter was well worth the extra trouble they must have got the biggest rollocking of their lives |

They should have asked you if you wanted it back on a card if they had no money.

hmmm I would have thought that putting proceeds of a cash bet on a debit card would breach anti money laundering regs.
|
|
By:
Yes they would have anti money laundering protocol but I doubt his bet was nothing near what they would call money laundering. Nothing wrong with being paid back on a card.

As Ramruna stated .Get em to pay it to card.
Ask yourself how many hands will that cash have been thro before its got you.? Would you shake hands with that many? Of course not. DO NOT USE CASH UNLESS YOU HAVE TO. |

Thanks for all the advice, i didnt know they coud do that, thats exactly what a forum should be about
I do find it odd they had no money and obviously was in preparation for the shut down, these large firm/ industry's do know before whats about to happen its not a shock to them the government pre warns them as i found in 2008 with the bent barclays who cancelled a appointment and refused to speak to me days before the meltdown as i was after changing a normal rate mortgage i had with them to a tracker mortgage which was a 0.05 over base rate which high street office staff had been warned not to deal in anymore. Luckily went barclays direct who warned me to return forms immediately and got it 2 days before the banks nearly went bust, it saved me a fortune and just shows what goes on behind the scenes, its not a shoch they do know |

They don't keep excess money in shops purely down to the economics. If you think about it, if a company has 2000 shops and each shop kept back £800 that would tie up £1.6 million on the off chance the shop might need it. No good to the punter waiting but I can see why they do it.

They probably got used to having a load of emergency money sloshing around in the fobts too,& haven’t got around to changing their practices.
