  • I agree! If you search enough you can find them by trial and error. Towns with high student populations seem to have them more often.

    I found these that I use regularly.

    Another Yorkie here! I have to agree that cash machines near universities seem to have £5 notes in them!

    I often get cash out at the post office these days as I have an account with lloyds. Beauty is you can ask for whatever you want ;)

    I've not seen a cashpoint dispensing fivers in years, the last one was lloyds banks machine in Bognor Regis.

    There are machines in London that don't do smaller than a £20 note, lets hope that doesn't become the norm.
  • I never knew there were cashpoints that ever did fivers! :o
