Fruit Machine Chat

Was speaking to a mechanic the other day who reckons
they are contemplating having receipts on fruities instead
of cash, where u cash-in at the bar?
Anyone else heard this?
It sounds like a load of bollox to me?

is a pub thats dying on its arse and nearly closed down due to the smoking ban, thats not taking any money over the bar going to pay out a ticket for a £140 roll on a red? i dont fuckin think so??

if they do this we are all FUCKED

it's what they want to do but at the moment the law is preventing them.

our chameleon cms has ticket printer but this a different kettle of fish.

I heard this rumour years ago but it was the government who wanted all wins over £xx to be paid by a printed reciept/cheque, but it never happened because the industry went crazy over it.

That would just about kill the awp. Or see a return to £5 jp machines everywhere

Can u imagine a 105 claim in
a cliquey pub that only takes £30 days takings lol
He'll set his rottweilers on ya!

they put a poxy fortune 2000 lottery fruit in my social club on ticket payout . pile of sheeeeeite. no one liked it or indeed won on it anything worth having,god knows what would have happened if someone dropped it,they certainly wouldnt have had 2k laying about to payout.

you'd think that there should be a law that they would have to have it in the safe. Similar to americas casino rules about having a minimum amount held on the premises.

But then its like"There is a minimum amount of money you can steal here sould you want to"type of thing

it simply wont happen due to future poss empties ,,,,,,,,, picture it ,,,, one of us fuckers sat on one since 9am ,, and at 11pm cashing in a ticket for 6grand

Agreed, it could never happen.

True, but a lot of machines, especially ones with larger jackpots, already have the disclaimer "Malfunction voids all pays and plays". In an instance like this they could obviously argue that the machine has malfunctioned because it has drifted too far from its target percentage, or some other rubbish, and they wouldn't have to pay you.

i know that doh, the clever slotters amongst us would take reasonable amounts and move on to another terminal, but once the trick has gone chav widespread ,what i said above would happen, ,,,,and the companys will never implement this for those reasons

So if the tickets aren't legally binding in the event of an emptier, due to the disclaimer I quoted in my previous post, then why would the manus be concerned about the scenario you described?
Some of the original £500 section 16/21 machines had ticket only payout so why wouldn't this have been a worry to them then?

I do agree that it won't happen but it's more likely to be for reasons such as the hassle it would cause getting pubs to install new equipment such as ticket validators and the necessary training they'd need to give staff in how to use them. Not to mention additional costs to the already struggling distributors which would probably be passed down to the sites themselves.

Yeah obviously, but I was just referring to the 6K ticket example you were using.
