My Dad opened up the back but the tubes are empty and we defo dropped several pound coins into it to test it worked (which it did)

All I can think of is that they have gone into the compartment which has the lock on (which is jammed) I guess the only way to know is to bust the lock??

its about 20 years old and has a mpu4 powersupply and board, which have been obsolete for years, machine enthuisists are always on the look out for working parts. i would shine up all the chrome , get it looking pretty then advertise it on gumtree... i wouldnt worry too much about it not taking new...

Really?? How much?? Machine works fine - lights up, sound, etc. Prob a few bulbs gone as some of the cards do not light up, other than that - all ok My Dad picked it up for me as a present / money saving device. Does not take the new 50p or 10p coins. Cant find much about this machine on the old t'i...

Hi Picked up an old Barcrest machine called Blackjack Club I have a key (circular) for the cabinet right at the very bottom which opens up and holds plastic trays where the 20p pieces drop. However £1 and £10p coins do not drop in here - although they are registered by the machine. I am not sure whe...

Opened up the back and it looks like this: Really havent got a clue what to do - as explained previously - 20ps are accepted and drop right to the bucket below. 10ps are accepted but are stored somewhere in the machine and this is what is ALWAYS paid out - always 10p's. £1 coins are accepted and lik...

So it wll never pay out £1 coins or 20p pieces - only 10p pieces? Bit pants that have to say - how the hell did the original pay out - it has a £40 jackpot - surley it wasnt all in 10p's?

I wonder why the £1 coin didnt pay out ( it didnt drop down into the cash box ) or do you have to have so many in there

you cant How come the machine accepts the 20p's and give you playing credits for them but wont pay them out - no way to amend this? I put a £1 coin and it didnt drop down - it stayed in the machine like the 10p's do - yet when I made a win over £1 - only the 10p pieces paid out - not the £1 coin - ...

I was given a Barcrest Club Blackjack machine for Xmas - it doesnt take the new 50p's - whic is not really a problem - however I do have some questions When I enter a 10p into the machine this is stored and paid out on any wins. When I put a 20p piece in it drops right down into the bucket below. Th...
