I always do a switch off and on for an IOU
I had it on a TIOLI ages ago got down to £65 and IOU
I call the member of staff over and he just says 'ok leave your details' etc
I said can you just switch it on and off see if that works
He says NO
Ok i said and bent down and switched it off and on myself, and sure enough was able to collect the money
I dont get them over now till i've tried the off/on first

Most staff are clueless, gotta take things into your own hands.

Sick last few days really.
Notable events were £18 into a happy Crown Jewels for the £140. Stepped to next machine (BRT) to check pots - £70 on £1. Try one board - COB for CP.
Found a Mist with pots on £25. £70, £64. Didn't take the piss too much so healthy raise there. Same pub played a Devil of a Deal for the first time in about 9 months after my only two experiences previously have been close to £200 in for a flat each time.
Thought I'd give it one last chance and it did a £210 off £42 in.

The LTD was a nice £100ish raise after too :P

I go to the bar tell the manager he comes over I press collect again to show him it's not paying out, by then it Os me £15. he then sticks his fingers up the shoot and wiggles is fingers and shit loads of coins drop out after he finished he said there ya mate, I stuck them straight I'm pocket and there was £140 there. Don't ask how they all got stuck there cos I ain't got a clue. Anybody else know why there could be so many coins stuck.
