Found: Cash hanging out of cashpoint

ludoscotts/EDdownunder - nice to be proved wrong!

This happened to me once. I took the money into the bank that the cash machine belonged to. They took my details of my card that i used directly after i found the money and reunited the money with the owner who was the person who withdrew the cash. I got a lovely thank you letter.

I would like to second MsDulwich (good name by the way!). I hope you believe in Karma Dano

Dano, I think you have had lots of different advice here so I won't be able to add anything new other than welldone for being so honest. Good luck with finding the owner who I am sure will be grateful.

Dano,

I have PM'd you....

x!

I think you've done the right thing. A lot of people would have kept the money, as its very difficult to trace. If no ones claimed it, then charity is the best cause. It is very difficult when your in this position because you want to do the right thing but theres not a lot you can do.

It did with me ... a long time (15 years) ago

Reported theft after someone attacked me at a cashpoint .. turned out the money was sucked back in and the guy was just a drunk not a mugger.

Dano - did the money smell of eucalyptus? If so, I think i know who might own it.

Its happened to me a couple of times (the money being sucked in, not the fight).

Very pleased to see someone being honest and trying to trace the poor old owner. well done Dan.

As a matter of fact, my cards were occasionally sucked back in before Abbey Nat changed its system to make you take the card before the cash, IYSWIM.

I once got zero out, but got a receipt for my non withdrawal of 50 quid. It was a sunday so I was a bit worried but I contacted the bank on the Monday and they were able to give it straight to me, preusmably having been ?50 over when reconciling the machine.
