I'm torn about 20 Pound Notes!
Earlier this week, I pulled out a 20 pound note to pay my bill in Harefield Hospital Cafe.
The lady grimaced - then handed it back.
Turns out that it was torn 30% across the middle.
"Can't accept that" she said.
I asked to speak to the boss - and she said the same!
Very embarrassing in a big queue!
I had to take it to my Bank, later, and they gave me a new one - but only after taking my Bank card and checking my account!
Is this the norm these days?
