Found an unchipped P5 last night!

Thought I'd have a few quid on it whilst I was waiting for my mate - I suddenly got the feeling it might be unchipped (and being done) when it took about 6 quid to even give a bonus, the notey was off, and then another few quid to get a feature. Lo and behold, when I finally got on the board, it was unchipped.

Thing is it was dead - I managed to get a £29 bank from my £20 in (that included one 'normal' game where it actually gave me the three phones), and put in another six quid without a board. I decided to take my 23 quid and walk, but the bloody thing IOU'd for 6 quid.

Now the girl working there said 'oh the machines broke again' - so its obviously happened a lot. She gave me a card with the company details to claim the IUO. The first thing is, I can't really be bothered for £6. But secondly, if I did, would it be likely to 'alert' the company that their machine is being done? I mean, surely they must know about the emptier by now?

Umm

really u should have refilled it as only £6 and gone back refil day and emptied it

Probably be chipped next time if a big distributor

You phoning for the IOU makes no difference. If they refil it themselves they would have done it there and then most probbaly. So they will have to call engineer anyhow

Someone else is also doing it so personally I wouldn't worry about it

wouldn't say that was worth a thread tbh.

ZOMG A NEW LUCKY STRIEK TURNED UP IN ONE OF MY LOCAL PRIVATELY OWNED ARCADES AND IT WAS 124 OFF AND I THOUGHT IT WAS UNCHIPPED BUT IT ONLY COST ME £3 TO FIND OUT IT WASNT I WAS GUTTED MATE

What are you, the fucking suitable topic police now? What the hell is wrong with some people on this site recently?

Matty, think you're right - I was kicking myself after because I'd have been better off keeping quiet for the sake of six quid, and trying to hold onto it a bit longer. Ah well!

its not really for the 'sake of six quid either' cos when you refill the £6, you then just collect it and leave the machine REFILLX£125. but yeah, you dont get your £6 claim, which youve said youre not bothered about! ALWAYS REFILL! and preferably key in the FIRST PLACE so you dont even risk it. Dont be greedy and empty below £20 and depending on the emptier, make sure you kill of the machine too!

I had a U/C Take the Piece for 3 weeks by killing it off + leaving £15 in it and no-one else was doing it(probably because Red on50p)

Only changed last week and this was LL!

Was the machine provider Gamestech by any chance?

I have a power of 5 unchipped Gamestech.

Every player round here is going in to do it every other day.

The staff even now how to do the machine.

The only reason i can think of it still being unchipped is that the sales of coke are going through the roof.

Nope not gamestech. I can't get there now until monday so will go over then and see what the situation is.

My local spoons has Power 5, the 4-reel DOND (£35) and until recently had Take the Piece too, that one was replaced by Warped.

Had a few pints with a mate in there today, stuck a pound in DOND 4-reeler, board first credit that went straight to Hazard first spin, pressed CoB and...

But no repeat.

Power 5 seems to be switched off all the time for some reason, only came in 2 weeks ago and I have only seen it on once.

MJD you and a lot of others have not fully took advantage of this great site! go to features and links then fruit machine cheats. Quality little collection of emptiers/cheats/tips. Still on machines that are easy to find.

why on earth do you think its unchipped then?! youre just being a pesimist- ie: I dont know the cheat therefor this MUST be unchipped cos Im a gambler and I have shit luck.
