Before I even click on it, is it about the bank machine in Rutherglen?! Hahaha yeah, saw it earlier, how did they think that somebody wouldn't think something was up? Would be fine if you were at the start of the queue, but a waste of time if you were 200 yards down the street waiting.
Especially if the polis and bank officials turn up eventually to fix it and you're sitting at the end of queue of 100 folk with an empty one across the road. "Eh, aye, Ah just don't like the colour of the other wan." If you're shown to be at that cash machine deliberately, could you get done for it?
Hahaha Not too sure, I reckon you could probably get done by some law about knowingly obtaining money illegaly. If it was your branch, it would be hard to prove that you weren't genuinely in the queue though. Would be different if you got money out and then went to join the back of the queue again though!
I once used a cashpoint to withdraw £400. It gave me my card and said "please take your money" but no money came out. I rang the bank and they said that the machine knows what it has dispensed so not to worry, my balance would stay the same. And it did. So I wonder if all these people will get the actual amount the machine gave them deducted from their balance?
The single greatest thing about that image is the civility of it all. We all want to rob the bank, but we are willing to stand patiently while the person in front has their turn at robbing the bank first - we're not animals, ye know.
"The Bank of Scotland said the branch would contact any customers who have been affected" = We'll be writing to you thieving bastards so don't get all coccky.
