And then added a cash point to further add to the congestion in the doorway Druggy machine of choice there and the sea terminal ain't it? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Machine outside cycle 360 Machine inside newsbeat in the business park Both used to give UK notes but I have not taken cash out from them for a while and also don't know if these machines are still there.( last time I took cash was before covid hit ) I also used to think that UK notes were only available at the sea terminal/ aiport and was shocked when I got it . Not sure if these machines were loaded with those notes as a one off . Will be great if someone living nearby could check and post here.

Bank of England notes if you insist on the correct terminology 🙂 The machines I mentioned used to dispense them instead of the IOM notes I was expecting to get ( so was a bit of a surprise as it's usually only the sea terminal and airport ones that do this) But as I mentioned above this was some time in late 2019 ( before the pandemic ) Since then I've withdrawn cash maybe only 3 or 4 times ( and from the ones in Douglas Town centre which gives IOM notes ) Almost every retailer accept cards these days anyway and I haven't really needed much cash.

Yes, I’m sort of being pedantic. There’s no such thing as UK notes. Even Bank of England notes aren’t legal tender in Scotland or Northern Ireland. The only UK wide legal tender is coinage. You mean English notes ( which are also legal tender here ). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I said it was a surprise for me and that's why I remember it so well . I had not seen it anywhere else on the Island except Sea terminal/ Airport. But this is from maybe 2.5 years ago..So things could have changed .. Edited July 30, 2022 by mad_manx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve had Uk notes from the point at Cycle 360 I think they do it to make it simple for off island business visitors to the business park. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
