How to get lots of change

TSx

I need to change £100 cash into 100 £1 coins - what is the easiest way of getting hold of these either paying in notes or with a debit or credit card?

edit: this is personal - not for a business

Thanks!

Go to a bank and deposit £100 into your account, then withdraw from the counter £100 in £1 coins... that's what I usually do!

Edit: Unless you've got a casino/arcade near you that you can get change from the machines

Buy a scraggy dog for £100 and beg for coins in the street - make sure that you throw back in disdain any notes you're given.

If you're in London and you don't mind also getting some 10p/20p coins you can use the change machine at major stations like King's Cross and Euston.

I usually go into a bank that I'm a customer of and hand over the notes at the counter in exchange for the coins.

Pay in the £100, then ask to withdraw the £100 back out in £1 coins, as long as the cashier has them.

Where I work we bank the bags of coins thoughout the day so depends when you ask for the money, first thing in the morning you may find they dont have any, but after the mid morning rush you may find you have more luck.

As others have said you would need to go to where you bank account is held if you have more then one you may find it a little easier to get the colns....

When I dont have enough coins I do suggest the customers to go to the pier or the arcade and put the notes in the coin machine for £1 coins, last resort you may get some odd coins by purchasing a can of something then putting the notes through a self service machine...
