ATMs who dispense fivers

Hi I've read that there are ATMs in student areas that actually still dispense five pound notes, but I'm damned if I can find one in the vast swathe of Manchester student land...... can anyone pinpoint one? cheers.

  • Most cashpoints inside banks do them.

    Ask your bank and see if they know any in the area.
    And remember folks... A cubicle is just a padded cell without the padding!
  • Hey,

    I think the ones near Whitworth Park do ;)

    Its usually banks on Uni campuses that issue fivers - I know that Birmingham Uni it is Lloyds TSB that is the main culprit (as a member of staff I tried to use the Natwest cashpoint as that issued bigger notes).

    Try Lloyds TSB

    Its usually only barclays ones that do. I'm fairly sure I've got fivers from Whitworth Park, Grosvenor Street and MMU Union!
  • Yeah the one at Warwickshire College (West Midlands, like Brum!) is Lloyds TSB and it does fivers.
    I don't believe and I never did that two wrongs make a right

    My lloyds/barclays (can't remember exactly) at Staffordshire Uni dispenses brand new crisp £5 notes :)

    Its great, you ask for £15, gives you 3 £5 notes, all with the serials +1 each other.

    I think I am a bit sad for finding that exciting though :(
