Just thought I'd share this in case this panic happens to anyone else! Earlier today, I used an ATM (not in ED) outside a building society for a cash withdrawal and the receipt issued showed a balance figure much lower than I knew was in my account. I dashed back home to check my online account and all seemed fine. I phoned my bank,and was reassured that my account was fine, and the receipt was wrong. The woman I spoke to said that these errors happen sometimes when ATM's get old! Has this happened to anyone else?

Pam, never heard anything like this - ATM's old? Everything should tally up and receipt issued should be right. You should ask that the bank checks the ATM for any external devices/hidden cameras. Don't want to worry you but watched a programme the other night about how easy it is for gangs to make big profits from cloning/keeping card details.


PaulK if you can't help, then don't make unhelpful comments.

Thank you Minder. The woman on the phone from the bank (Halifax) took information about the machine's location to have it investigated and made sure I had logged all details of our conversation in case there were any later issues. I just found the experience very worrying and her explanation bizarre, which is why I wondered if it had happened to anyone else.

      Surprise, surprise. It didn't take them long, did it. This will be something of a test as to how much the council really care about parks and the environment. A footfall of 60,000. Are they mad? There is no way this park is designed for or can sustain that sort of use.

      Police appeal: Monday, 25 August – Assault between the junction of Lordship Lane and Chesterfield Grove at around 16:45hrs

      There was another unprovoked attack on Monday this week on a young woman nearby (Anstey Road) at 6.45pm. Don't have any other details, it was posted on a Facebook group by her flatmate. Pretty worrying  https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1EGfDrCAST/

      Dulwich library closing for refurbishment

      By Dogkennelhillbilly · Posted

      OMFG is it possible for the council to do anything without a bunch of armchair experts moaning about it? The library refurb is great news, as it's lovely but completely shagged out - the toilets don't even work reliably. Other libraries in the area will be open longer house during the closure. July is a rubbish time to begin a refurb because it's just before the entire construction sector goes on summer holiday, and it would mean delaying the work another 8 months.
