Never mind what I'd do! Just tell me which Halifax branch. wink
ZZZZOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMmm!!!!!!!!!!!!!...........
As Countess works for a certain bank that gives you extra ( wink ) I'll ask her to have a scan of this thread and see if there's any way you can be identified.
TBH removing the money without being autherised to is theft and as most of the cashpoints have cameras that take pictures while the cashpoint is active there's a chance you may have been spotted anyway. :shock:
I'll let her have a look at the thread and see what she says. :wink:
This has happened to me. I withdrew some money from a cashpoint at a supermarket and noticed there was a corner sticking out of the cash flap, so I pulled it and won a very crumpled £20 note. It went on beer and a fish supper. redface lol
I thought it might be that cashpoint (as it's crap and a pain in the butt anyway)

knowing Judy to be sensible i think took the money home to keep it safe
then trot along to the branch on monday morning ask to see the boss person and hand it in and hoping there will be a reward for being a kind lady and not keeping it

3 trannys + 1 cash machine = empty bank lol
Oh, no this wasn't a shopping trip :lol: The bank gave you the money..... hmmm.
You skipped happily over to aflecks and bought those thigh high white patent boots you have fallen in love with. :lol:
I'd have split the money between the three of us or given it to charity....
This is what I would have done..... bolt to the nearest :beer: and :karaoke: and :smoke: and :cheers: and drinkies .................
They can prove nothing :small-print: :rascal:
:crazy:
:shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:
Just thought..... hey, if that £320 came out of MY account, I want it back NOW!!!!!

Well, that's what I'd have done. They had a brill pair a while back. Thigh high suede, 3 inch stilleto heels, in black.
The snappy part was that in about foot segnets the boots had gold zippers runing around them so you could have them as pixie boots or thigh highs or any stage in between. They looked GORGEOUS. Couldnae afford thoughsad
I'm a moral person and would have likely contacted the bank to explain the situation. Unless boots were involved...

I would thank the God's for showering down Love Money on me!
(especially as my bank account is usually in the dr)
I seem to remember hearing on the news last year, some poor soul who's bank accidently deposited a few thousand quid into his account. It stayed there for a few months, then he took it out and spent it.
A few months later, they wanted it back. With interest!
I'd have spent it on a bloody good night out rolleyes
Dawn :silly:
ID have spent it on a bloody good night IN :twisted:
Honest as I am, I would have kept it, certainly for what I would class as a reasonable length of time. If they did trace me and ask for it back, I could then produce the envelope with it in. However, if they didn't come asking for it, it would go towards a very nice watch I have my eye on!!
All banks and financial establishments have the power of write off against losses at the tills and cash points. To them, £320 is nothing and highly unlikely that they would chase you to the ends of the earth to get it back. It is also very bad PR for them that their security is so bad.

Again that wasn't the question.
However. I already know the the legal implications. And technically removal of the money was NOT theft. keeping it is. The removal of it could be construed as checking to see if my account had been debited at a later stage as no written statement was given and If I or one ofthe other two didn't remove it for safe keeping it would almost certainly have been lost or stolen.

I did answer the question (in a roundabout way)...

Ahhh the simple pleasures in life, beer and deep-fried food (ocassionally). biggrin
I had saturation about a year ago where I owed about a 1000 pound on my credit card, I had no intention of paying it off for a while. Then the next thing I know 700 pound had been paid off leaving only 300 pound on my statement. I said nothing to the bank about this, and some 4 months later just when I thought I’d got away with it, the bank sent me a letter saying there had been an admin mistake and 700 pound had accidentally been debited to my account and my bill was now back at 1000, far enough they never asked for the interest as it was there mistake.
So to answer your question I’d keep the money for about 6-7 months, to see if there’s any comeback, then after that time I’d spend it. And maybe to balance the karma a litttle give 70 quid to a charity.
This is what I would have done. Kept the money till the branch was open again. Speak to the person who balances the ATMs and tell them what happened.
They would probably suggest that you wait whilst the ATM is balanced, but it was probably done on Monday morning, after the weekend. Then if there is a discrepancy, they'd possibly ask you for the cash. In all honesty, you would be entitled to keep it and not tell. You have committed no fraud and you have not intentionally taken funds from someone elses account. However, the funds will be from someone elses account, and the Hx has to prove that someone legitamately took the cash out.
As they will NOT be able to prove that, they will eventually give the account holder the money back. But it will be a long fight for the account holder and a rather nasty one, too.
Therefore, I would deffo hand the money in, as this maybe more than the account holder can afford to lose. I know it would be if it were me.
My job is not well paid. That would be more than half my monthly pay packet.
I work for the Halifax.
if well busty babe had had this happen she would have called up judytv and said "honey.....lets go shopping.. we can BOTH share it".. please bear this in mind when YOU decide what to do judy!

The correct thing to do is to take the money to the Police Station and hand it in as lost property (get a reciept!). If it is unclaimed after 6 months, they will let you keep it.
The problem is that the police will go straight to the bank and ask if they want the money back, if you tell them where the money came from.
However, if you were far too drunk to remember how you obtained the money, or (and you might have an advantage here!) you don't match the description of the 3 ladies concerned, the police might not be able to put 2 and 2 together, especially if the bank follows their usual policy of 'our cash machines are infallible' and keeps quiet about it.
If you wished to muddy the trail somewhat, you might consider the person who operated the machine splitting the cash into 2 sums, giving them to the other two, who will take them on different days to different police stations, and explaning that they were asked by someone hopelessly drunk to do the right thing and hand in some money that person had found, which would be factually accurate.
I realise the question is 'what would YOU have done', but I think the above only really works well with 3 trannies and not 1 bloke!.
Personally, I'd have written to the Halifax's marketing department at head office and asked them to provide a written admission that their machine was handing out free cash which you could use to verify your story when you went to the press, and stating that you didn't get this you would assume the money was an unsolicited gift. It's well worth them losing £320 to spike your story!

Now this idea I like. lol :lol: :lol: :cheers:
My first reaction was to take the money and run but after reading the rest of the thread, I think I would have to take it into the bank the next day. Shame!
I think Judy handed it into the bank or the police because her friends persuaded her to!!
I've found money in the street and pocketed it but if I found a purse/wallet with cards or some other ID, I'd hand it in. Soemhow it's different when you 'know' who it belongs to.
My friend found a purse with no ID but 800 squid! She was at work so rang the police. Later, an old couple came to collect it and gave her a pound coin for her troubles. Generous, eh?

A certain bank (begins with a letter ''B') nicked several hundred quid off me once. Actually they closed my account and nicked the money that was in it. They then allowed me to keep paying cheques into the now-closed account for several months, with that money also vanishing into the ether. It was only when I tried to use my debit card to buy a Christmas present, and it came up refused, that I realised something was wrong.
I had to open a new account, and then it took them three or four months - literally! - to return the money they'd taken. Thieving bastards. Naturally, I'm not with that bank anymore!!!

:P It was the one on the Corner of Marlket Street next to Coffee Nero in Piccadilly. :P
JudyTV
and i was only there a few weeks back mad
Sorry Id take the cash (especially as im so skint right now and could really do with something like that happening to me smile )
If I dfound a purse or soemthing in the street Id hand that into the police though cause Id feel bad and id hate for it ti happen to me.
I reat this thread thinking it was gonna be a joke?? Was looking for the punchline?? Is there one to come!!
btw anybody got a spare £10
Well I also thought what a wonderul line for a joke but then thought Judy has posted this as a serious thread so I think we had better let it run its serious course ...then the likes of me can jump on it and hijack it with some one liners wink
If it was me I think I would hand it in to the bank after being sorely tempted ...but only because I would worry that it was some poor souls life savings which may have been going to buy a much needed fire for winter (which feels like its already here sad ) I know chances are it wont be ...but .!!!!
Watch out Fruity
here it comes...................................
:sparring: WHAMOO!!!! rotflmao
:shock: I said PUNCHLINE!! PUNCHLINE D'YA HEAR THAT!!
lol
:laughabove: @ Rebecca and Fruity. rotflmao
Cheers Judy biggrin
Youre a doll smile
well the banks tell you this couldn't happen.....I try not to think of myself as dishonest but under the circumstances that I was given more monet than i should at a ATm...i would simply pocket it. The bank gets enough off me....and not as if they are struggling to make profits. If the bank did ever come back and ask for it back i would just say it only gave me say£20 and how can they prove otherwise.
Spend it..have fun
you only live once.....so live for today.
