Re: Just saying!
Just a quick update on my circlip situation. Unclipped about 300 so far, 280 prised off no problem. 4 broken whilst being unclipped. 15 flew off into the stratosphere, most recovered because I hear them land and know where to search and recovered. 4 recovered from the carpet whilst doing my yoga. One is still at large ( I know where it is and marked it's location but have to remove my work bench to retrieve it!).
Had just six call outs for coin mechs needing fine tuning on-site.
Further update shortly.
Regards,
Pete

Re: Just saying!
Lol, Ive got a load of spare circlips now.
What problems have you had on site Pete? Ive tested all of mine as Ive put them on so hopefully I wont get too many calls.

Re: Just saying!
I still haven't seen any new pound coins in the towers I have converted when I have cashed up! I hope this remains the case for a while as I still have over 300 towers to change
Life is hell ATM I work a 10-12 hour day vending then as soon as I get home I work til midnight changing the coin mechanisms I bring home so I have stock to convert towers the next day!

Re: Just saying!
I haven't seen any yet....beginning to think this is some great big April fool by an ex vendor with a chip on his shoulder....there are enough of them around.
I'm keeping all them old plates, just in case!
