Was made aware of a few friends locals that the Ulster Bank is giving out free money! I know of 1 or 2 people going to bank machines using their Ulster Bank card to take out thousands of pounds!

I'm thinking these transactions are bound to be traced and are bound to be updated, eventually leaving all these guys outa pocket.

What do u think...have any of u's heard of this?? Crazyy...

If they weren't able to trace it then why do you think they would have money in the cash machines?!

Theres a glitch with the system currently stopping it from updating, but when it does those people will have to pay back whatever money they have overdrawn.

Aye it'll come back to haunt them surely, there's a couple of hundred running around Armagh cleanin the place out. Short lived...they're screwed!

Ulster bank are currently having computer issues from what I hear.

Few ones talking about how they've been paid the last few days but the money hasn't come through.

I'd say it'll be traced alright but may take a few days.

Some craic when it is spent and the bank wants it back. It is theft no matter what way you cut it.

There was a glitch with a machine in belfast last year where if you asked for 40 it would give you 50 out and it was never accounted for. This went on for ~6 months.

I didn't take any out as it was at a workplace however it did happen and there was never any comeback on it.

A few years ago I got a extras months wages in my salary one month,got payed twice.
Never said anything to anyone and it was never said to me.Is that stealing too?
I agree with you about the bank though those fools will have to pay the money back no matter what.

There are queues everywhere. From what I can gather, people will request so much and then multiples of that is being paid out. When people request a receipt, it is showing what was originally requested and not the actual amount taken out. I'm not Ulster Bank myself, but got caught up in all of this - took me ages to get £20 out, but a fella at the head of the queue was showing everyone his receipt and the multiples of cash.   ;D
