Do it my way. Take £50 and blow it on the way home. Then stay in for 2 weeks.

Yeah the only one I've ever since dispense £5s is the Lloyds TSB on my campus when I was at uni. The Natwest cashpoint right next to it didn't though, so a long queue at Lloyds around December and March!!!1st LBM (Pre-Career Change): 01 March 2006 Debt Free Date: 28 April 2008 | Worst Debt: £7244.36

My co-op cash point is even more annoying, either its not working at all, or it is and the minimum you can withdraw is £20 (don't know why though as when you do it comes out as two tens) Grrrrrr!

Is £20 quoted as the smallest amount on screen or have you tried 'other amount' and typed in £10?0 -
You know what, I don't think I've tried that, it just shows £20 as the smallest amount, will try next time though! Thanks!0

£2 in 20ps
£1 in 10ps
£1 in 5ps
£1 in 2ps
They run from their desks when they see me.
Oh Judi this just made me laugh so much, thank you.0 -
hey,
Barclays bank ATM machines allow five pound notes, but as you all stated before they come out worn and torn
we have a co-op cash machine on uni campus, that also dispences 5pound notes, but have to withdraw £15 to get that £5, really weird would of though i would be able to get a £5
barclays nationally have £5 in their system, usually press other > £5 and should be ok0 -
I once withdrew about £60, and I got it all in £5's! M friend behind me was annoyed, as she wanted £5 and it would only give her £10 or £20 as it had run out.Murphy's No More Pies Club #209

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/8211720.stmMore £5 notes for cash machines
HSBC said that 100 of its cash machines in the Midlands and south west of England were being stocked with more fivers in a Bank of England trial.
While all UK cash machines must have the capacity to hold all denominations of notes, demand and efficiency means most only give out £10 and £20 notes.0
