Fruit Machine Chat

get 140 off bank job, and on collecting somehow the machine manages to spit about 1 in 10 nuggets into the cashbox... what a fucking con, ended up with 127.

I had the £70 cluedo do that to me in there about 2 and a bit years ago... So I nicked the massive £70 sign off the top, it's now sat comftably in the corner of my room. :-)

bellfruit cabs love doing this also.

Probably owed a grand or so over the last few years.

Got an ltd in my local spoons does the same,occationally swallows notes aswell

You know the second you've lost one.

I've not had this happen in established arcades or pubs, but I've certainly had it at travelling fairs, where it pays me a pound less than what the bank was. Someone here mentioned Bellfruit cabs. Can't remember whether it was Bellfruit or Barcrest with me, or even older/extinct manus, so I'll have to pay more attention.

Bell fruit cabs are the worst I think... I remember power 5s use to bump you loads of coins. The older crest cabs use to love a good £ bump too!

Bell fruit stitch more on paying out crests stitch more for nicking coins instead of credits in my experience

Bellfruits main problem was the pound drop through into the bottom.
Barcrest cabs were the hopper jam then alarm. If landlady/landlord were a decent sort, you could ask them to violently shake the machine to release the blockage!
