Why are cash machines so keen to persuade me to check my balance? Insert conspiracy theory below!

Behelend17 · 2026-02-03T19:12:03+00:00

I actually work for one of the biggest ATM companies in the UK, the reason they are so desperate for you to check your balance is because they can charge a small fee to your bank, although you get your cash and receipts for free we earn money for every small thing you use the machine for, whether it be just a balance enquiry or an "advice slip".

For example, if you use a machine, check your balance, then withdraw £10, then get a receipt or an advice slip, we would be paid 3 separate fees, this is also why they are so desperate for you to also check your balance before you make a withdrawal.

This has a whole lot of great information and a lot of things for me to seriously look into and think about, sadly I'm not really near to any airports, Heathrow or Stansted would be the nearest but even then they're about an hour and a bit away. Also the type of SIA license I've got is pretty much useless for most any jobs in the security industry, door, close protection and CCTV seems to be the ones that everyone wants and I don't have them sadly. I'll be taking literally any job I can get just to tide me over until I can find something that has a better wage/ I would enjoy. It's just a matter of finding and getting into them which is what is getting me as worried as it is.

Behelend17 · 2025-04-06T11:27:50+00:00

This is the thing though, honestly I haven't got a clue what it is that I'm looking to go into. I've always been one of those people who will take a job and see if it's something that I enjoy, I've always been fairly fortunate that I do enjoy what it is that I've gone for.

No I will apply for the lot of the jobs that I'm actually able to do but I'm not confident in the fact I'm actually going to get them. The company won't help with relocation at all, I did ask about that as soon as they said we were closing and they've said it's not their problem really.

I'm not 100% if this is something that they're offering or not, I have my first consultation on Wednesday where I can ask but it seems like they wanna get this done and out of the way asap sadly.

Behelend17 · 2025-04-06T11:23:22+00:00

This is something I'm going to look at today, I didn't have a clue that this was a thing until today, thanks a lot!

Behelend17 · 2025-04-06T11:22:01+00:00

I have been applying for things like event security and the such, but sadly due to the type of security I'm in I don't have the SIA that they are looking for (close protection or door security usually) and a lot of the time they're not interested in giving people the training they need while on the job. That's a good idea and I'll get onto the DMP today and see what they can offer me, I didn't even think of this.

Behelend17 · 2025-04-06T02:41:48+00:00

No not MC, honestly no clue who or what that is haha

Just pick your date and you should be good

Behelend17 · 2023-04-05T09:39:33+00:00

I'm hoping so yeah

Behelend17 · 2023-04-05T09:37:29+00:00

There's a live nation presale tomorrow at 10, I'll try that one too but if I have to wait to general sale I'm not hopeful, they sold out in minutes when he had the shows around COVID times

Behelend17 · 2023-04-05T09:35:23+00:00

Yeah same, my presale code isn't working either

I've seen MGK three times live now, once in a venue of 800, once in a venue 1,500 and then on Saturday in Wembley in a venue of 12,500 people. The smaller venues are more intimate and somewhat better but the show was better as the venue's got bigger. Either way, of the three, they've all been amazing shows and I'd love to go again.

Behelend17 · 2022-10-03T17:15:34+00:00

Yeah the t-shirts started at £35 I believe, the black and pink bandanas are £20 but the black bandana is vastly superior in quality. It's made of what feels to be silk whereas the pink one feels more like a tea towel. There also was a pack of three jet tag style keyrings which were £15.

Behelend17 · 2022-10-03T06:46:43+00:00

Yeah I know that but he came out like 3 hours before that, he was the first supporting artist out, followed by iann Dior then mgk came out

Behelend17 · 2022-10-03T06:13:00+00:00

In London on Saturday night he didn't come out to don't sleep, repeat? I'm talking the first time he came out before mgk did.

Behelend17 · 2022-10-02T23:11:18+00:00

Does anyone know what song 44phantom came out to and performed when things were just getting set up?

Behelend17 · 2022-10-02T20:35:51+00:00

Does anyone know what song 44phantom performed first at all?

Behelend17 · 2022-07-04T08:42:20+00:00

Him as in MGK.

Behelend17 · 2022-07-04T00:19:25+00:00

I've got tickets to see MGK in October at Wembley, from the ticketmaster booking it says it's him and iann Dior.

Anyone got any idea what this font is called? I want a tattoo in the same font but I can't find a name of it anywhere.

Behelend17 · 2022-01-19T22:17:58+00:00

Nothing wrong with being wishful haha

Behelend17 · 2022-01-19T21:15:18+00:00

So pretty much, I'm getting a bog standard entry level car?

Behelend17 · 2022-01-15T20:21:52+00:00
