Cash Crisis



Robot Chicken

Seriously?

Just tried to withdraw some cash using my NatWest ATM card from 4 different ATMs, each time it was refused. There's money in the account and I checked it earlier. Three of the ATMs just said it was unable to process my transaction, including just printing out a balance. The fourth said the Switch network was down.

This would be quite a big deal if the whole Switch network was down? I haven't heard anything about this. Standing on the pavement ringing NatWest and being put on hold because they were too busy is NO fun, especially when I've been put through by Directory Enquiries because I didn't have the bloody number on my new phone.

Has anyone else been affected or is it just me? :angry:

Just spoken to NatWest, they advise it IS a national problem but will be fixed in the next 10 minutes. Apparently.

So now you know.

There was only ONE working cash machine at Brighton Station today. At one point a Lewes shuttle had to be cancelled.

Why couldn't the customers buy tickets with cards instead ?

The train was cancelled because it was f***ed.

Right so the train was f***ed and not cancelled due to only one cash machine being available ?

Doh - just read your post correctly :dunce:

Yes, you are correct.

They were two unrelated problems that occured at Brighton station during the course of today.

North Stand Chat regrets to announce the cancellation of this joke, owing to the wrong type of punchline.
