Fruit Machine Chat

I dont work there anymore in fact I dont work in the industry at all anymore. No need for me to say as you should all be aware theres only really 3 main players in the Uk fruit machines supplier market.

Funnily enough no one ever asked for locations whilst I worked for them

Well actually it wasnt a rechip or a software update to be honest as this was mainly done back in the workshop. Like I say they didnt seem bothered about machines been "done" they simply swapped them around usually in the back of a car! (and yes this was a big supplier). Sometimes one engi...

Mainly from machines with "extra " money in but no claim from pub or IOUs which were not claimed. Money down pool table pockets, some of the more dodgy ones would just help themselves to money in club machines when the clubs emptied them themselves rtaher than the firm. From what I saw the...

Right guys I used to work for one of the biggest firms as an engineer and the pay was alright and the job ok, none of us cared about pros! in fact from what I can see the company didnt. There was none of the above that you mention if I went to a machine and there was evidence it payed short then the...

They are based at drumhead business park chorley. Crown who they bought out are based at Preston, if we want to get picky!

Nope too much driving working for scepre, I now operate my own vending machines however still quite knowledgable though. I left just when extremes were at there peak around the time manic muncher was released

Sceptre are based in chorley, i used to work for them as an engineer. However recently they have expanded significantly by purchsing crown. Basically stoke upwards to Carlisle is their area. Howver they do have sites around Birmingham. Any other questions give us a shout

I must admit I generally dont touch Donds but as the local now has one my addiction has been getting the best of me. One thing ive noticed if it ofers you deal or no deal and you go all the way to the end and have a bad amount in your box 9 times out of 10 the next bored you will be straight back on...

I used to work for sceptre and I doubt many of there machines are chipped trust me!

Unfortuatley many operators dont use there meter system properly (even the larger firms). It will be interesting to see how you get on. I wasnt being funny in my previous message its just that unfortunatley the industry is bent for the most part I have been to sites where situations like yours have ...

Unfortunatley having worked as a fruit machine engineer it is highly unlikely you will get this money back as it doesnt store in the memory or meters. Also on free play machines play alot "nicer" so to speak so you cant argue that the machine meant to do it. However like you said you put m...

Not really got many of these locally which I know is quite surprising played one the other day though as it appeared to be showing good signs anyhow after about a £10 it had give me loads of feature shots but as i didnt know what any were i didint take em. Just wondered what is the top feature from ...

well not been called out to one all week so maybe it was just chance? however the note box was stuffed with fivers on two of them a little unusual me thinks as there is normally only a few in. If someone does know something they must be making a mint

Brand new red in workshop at work today called invincible a clone of legal tender me thinks. I will have a play next time im there

Ok then whos doing these I work as a fruit machine engineer in the North west and keep getting called out to refill them something to do with note changer me thinks. Im gona find out how and stop you all!!! Seriously though this is unlike bell fruit in my experience bellfruits never get emptied
