It's a simple plugin fro this site so you can either dropin and see if anyone is online or book a time for others to meet up.

Just post a new thread and we can see how it works out.

Enjoy.

How about agreeing times each week when we might get together for a chat.

Suggestion Tues & Thurs 8pm - 10pm

Sounds good to me, I'll PM the board

ques:- banked money at post office today and was advised £20 lots of dodgy. ive been ok so far but has anyone tried to cash fake notes and if so did Hillarys take the loss or you?

[dolly]

First ive heard on fake notes for a while. But i would guarantee you 100% that it is down to you and I to take the fall on any fake notes. Our responsibility.
In my old job we had cash sales and when we knew there was dodgy notes about we used to write customers surname on each note in front of them so if any were refused later we both knew where they came from.

you'll be able to spot a dodgy note if you handle it. difficulty arises when/if you have to point it out to customer.

Yeah can see the sense in that Dolly but doesnt really make the customer replace if required to, your having to rely on their feeling bad about u being out of pocket.

I dont really see Hillarys sharing in the loss, but to quote Ross K "advisors and HIllarys have to share loss as well as profit", maybe should post this on Fri so Ross can see and give considered opinon, in meantime think i'll avoid any cash orders

[dolly]

Well again in the past we were given the special pens like some shops use at the till and even they didnt spot them all. They can be very authentic even more so with todays technology.

THANKS FOR THAT!!!!! REALLY

Just been to Post Office to Bank cash and neighbour behind counter tipped me the wink and passed it all back to me as 2 Fake £20 notes in the pile of £600plus I was paying in!!!!!)

She is supposed to keep them and report it but knows my circumstances so I will have to replace the £40 from my own dosh and bank at lunchtime.

Now what do I do with the dodgy £40?

I can go back to the ghetto where I got them but they will deny all knowledge---do I try to pass them in the pub in a rush hour!!!

I do not want to lose £40 as I know Hillarys will just say " Its only you"
OK I was paid in the dark, and was glad to get full money, am I supposed to check each note of 35 x £20 the customer gives me??

Knock the £40 off the invoice, as discount for customer accepting less than perfect goods. That way your only lose is 14.68% of the £40.

[highwayman]

Was the order even worth £40 in commission. Probably not in this day of 99for£3. So why lose more than you earn. If it's been payed in cash, why not knock £50 of the invoice? That way you don't even lose the 14.68%.
