Castor and Pollux spotted next door's rabbit in the garden,(we have them by the open French windows in this weather) their call was totally different to normal so I looked where they were looking and the rabbit was running around. If they hadn't shouted it would have got away, as it was we had to spend half an hour chasing it before it was captured in another garden :eek::eek:
So they saved the day for the kids next doorWhat is this life if, full of care, we have no time to stand and stare0 -

How are you getting them to scan? None of mine have barcodes or QR codes?
Thanks

Mine all had a QR code and numbers underneath. They just make the barcode larger on the phone screen then hold it to the till.
We are talking about the same ones aren’t we? I mean the £10 ‘dining out’ ones.
I’ve used at Sizzling pubs mainly and once at Vintage Inns.I Hate Jobsworths!!!0 -
They don't scan - they enter the code manually on the till screen. The only issue I have had in BellaI is when they don't know which of the many voucher buttons to press to enter it - Redeem SUV seems to be the correct option
.
The code comes up with an error if you try using it again after redeeming - I know as my Wi-fi dropped so I had one I knew was used but hadn't deleted properly. I told them I didn't know which, so they kindly tried it and I then deleted it again.

Hi yes they do that as well but why is there a square thing if it's not used I wonder. Some have even come up with insufficient funds on , that shouldn't happen as you don't have to spend the full £10 on them do you. Very hit and miss. Don't think half of them have a clue.0 -
I!!!8217;ve not had any problems with the £10 dine outs, only have 1 left.
Emerald have you tried asking them to check the balance on any? I did this the other day the lad scanned it and it had £10 on.
Hi I've got about 8 on different accounts and I don't know which work or not till they try them I m in a right muddle with them.0 -

Mine have got both but doesn t make them any easier to use :mad:
I think Mitchel and Butler include All bar one pubs but you could google them as well.
I went there today felt really out of place. I was in Chester and there was a race meeting on and all these dandies and young girls in extra short dresses clinging on to them came in. There was me at the bar with the girl trying them. Either not found or insufficient funds .
In the end she said take your food outside and I ll sort it later.0 -

Yes they are the ones I'm talking about and they have both. None of those two pub chains near me . There s an ember inn in Wrexham which I ve been too and a Toby Carvery near Ellesmere Port.0 -

Ignore me, I should have had my glasses on - I now see you are talking about the £10 card
.
