It's up to the shop's discretion. Where my family live there's a few shops that accept them no problem. However I usually just go to the bank machine here and get English notes.Pay all debt off by Christmas 2025 £815.45/£3,000£1 a day challenge 2025 - £180/£730 Declutter a bag a week in 2025 11/52Lose 25lb - 10/25lbs Read 1 book per week - 5/52Pay off credit card debt 18%/100%0

Well the Royal Mint disagree with you and I think I trust them more than you

Despite of your lack of trust of this MSE member, this is an interesting link as they define legal tender as what a court must accept as payment.0 -
Hi Homeboy,
Never had much problems using NI notes in Scotland but in parts of England they look at you as if your Al Capone trying to pass them counterfeit funny money. I find that its best when you arrive in GB to use a local bank cash machine and get your notes there. Saves you a lot of hassle.0 -
Am I right in saying that all the cash machines at all Halifax and Barclays banks here in NI only issue Bank Of England Notes? I'm pretty sure that's the case.... take some cash out at those before you go to GB...0

Or at the international airport - just as you head towards security after check-in - atm there supplies English banknotesThere are 10 types of people in the world - those who understand binary and those who do not. :doh:0 -

I thought that too, but the Halifax cash machine in Lisburn gave me Ulster Bank notes!0
