heard about machines on the way that will not give out cash but tickets that can be redeemed over the bar.Beware Brewis!
Its because of higher stake fruities and more people putting in notes.why machines cannot be adapted to pay out notes?

at present limited to INDES

thats shit coz they know that if people who just play them for fun and only win £2/£3 will be too embarassed to go to the bar.
also some places are just too busy aswell and could take 20mins just to get there money.
this will put even more people off playing them

They already do if you insert seeds instead of coins.

And wait.

They can, easily - but it's still illegal.

at least you'll have a hard copy of the proof that you are owed the money if they do want to get funny about a payment.
i agree that many more small wins will just get cycled back through ,not necessarilly a bad thing though,and that many little tickets won't get claimed.

I saw one of these ticket machines last nite, it had a £1.50 IOU on the screen, it was indeed an Ind:e.

As for ticket paying AWP's i can see them adopting a lottery type approach, any more than 70/100 must be redeemed via post, please allow 28 days to 6 months for payment, depending on company!
