Guest jimmyowl77 Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 (edited) Although I never use the atm's that charge £1.50 for using them, maybe the club could look at getting a few installed if the money charged goes straight to the club. Maybe one in the shop and one in each stand especially if the club are looking to get the fans in early and stopping after the game, spending more money in the ground and getting a profit from the machines in the ground. I probabley wouldn't be as opposed to using them if SWFC got the cash Edited April 16, 2009 by jimmyowl77 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eDDie Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 Absolutely. Especially since there are only three cash machines within five minutes walk of the ground, and two of them are £1.50 chargers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bebby Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 The money goes to the company that provides them, not to the establishment they are in. So unless they purchased their own (very expensive), it's a non starter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have thought the place its been installed in should get some income from this as why would most places have them? apart from encouraging people to spend in said establishment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeeeeeJ Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 I'd of thought the fact that they're going to be spending the money in the said establishment is enough for the company to have them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeeJayOne Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 I know that ATM machines is something that the club have been looking onto for a while and am aware we nearly got one in the club shop (indeed if you walk in and look to the wall on the right, there is a space reserved for one, with a sign saying 'ATM coming soon' or similar). Unfortunately, the recent banking crisis and economic climate has made ATM's very expensive to run and banks just aren't installing them any more (they are expensive to buy/install, maintain/keep filled and to run - each ATM needs a dedicated phone line, for instance) - indeed the bank who were in talks to install one have pulled out for that reason, I understand. Couple that with the sporadic and irregular footflow in the ground (i.e. it only ever really gets busy enough on matchdays) and it means it's not in the banks' interest at the moment to install one. I know the club have spoken to a number of providers and banks, by the way, and they have all declined the opportunity at this time. I am sure the club will keep trying to find someone to provide an ATM service. SHEFFIELD SHOP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGaffer Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 Me and my mates always say there should be a couple around Hillsborough. Its a rate hassle getting cash first. Also we wondered if it's possible to have chip and pin on some turnstiles or just outside? You can just enter your card like an atm, a little receipt is printed off with your row and seat number etc and then use this receipt at the new elctronic turnstiles we are setting up. What you guys think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest fanlin Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 I believe listening is powerful Medicine. Studies have shown it takes a physician about 18 seconds to interrupt a patient after he begins talking. It was Sunday. I had one last patient to see. I approached her room in a hurry and stood at the doorway. She was an older woman, sitting at the edge of the bed, struggling to put socks on her swollen feet.World of warcraft Power Leveling I crossed the threshold, spoke quickly to the nurse, scanned her chart noting she was in stable condition. I was almost in the clear. I leaned on the bedrail looking down at her. She asked if I could help put on her socks. Instead, I launched into a monologue that went something like this: "How are you feeling? Your sugars and blood pressure were high but they're better today. The nurse mentioned you're anxious to see your son who's visiting you today. It's nice to have family visit from far away. I bet you really look forward to seeing him." She stopped me with a stern, authoritative voice. wow power leveling,"Sit down, doctor. This is my story, not your story." I was surprised and embarrassed. I sat down. I helped her with the socks. She began to tell me that her only son lived around the corner from her, but she had not seen him in five years. She believed that the stress of this contributed greatly to her health problems. After hearing her story and putting on her socks, I asked if there was anything else I could do for her. She shook her head no and smiled. All she wanted me to do was to listen. Each story is different. Some are detailed; others are vague. Some have a beginning, middle and end. Others wander without a clear conclusion. Some are true; others not. Yet all those things do not really matter. What matters to the storyteller is that the story is heard — without interruption, assumption or judgment. Listening to someone's story costs less than expensive diagnostic testing but is key to healing and diagnosis. wow power leveling, I often thought of what that woman taught me, and I reminded myself of the importance of stopping, sitting down and truly listening. And, not long after, in an unexpected twist, I became the patient, with a diagnosis of multiple sclerosis at age 31. Now, 20 years later, I sit all the time — in a wheelchair. For as long as I could, I continued to see patients from my chair, but I had to resign when my hands were affected. I still teach med students and other health care professionals, but now from the perspective of physician and patient. I tell them I believe in the power of listening. I tell them I know firsthand that immeasurable healing takes place within me when someone stops, sits down and listens to my story. The Internet, which was unfamiliar to human beings is totally accepted by most of people. Especially these days, it has been developing faster and faster, people do not have much time to do everything by themselves. So making full use of the Internet is a good way to color one’s life. For instance, students could learn more and more from all over the world so that they can broaden their horizon and enrich their knowledge. Absolutely, the bridge that connects the whole world is the Internet. Secondly, scientists and mathematicians, too, can share research results in order to promote the wheel of human society much more quickly.world of warcraft power leveling, I suppose the key factor of importance of Internet is to find a good job . In the society which is full of competition, more information means more opportunities. A job hunter can get on the Internet to browse for a favorable job. Well, from what has been mentioned above, I believe with the high speed and efficiency, the Internet will become more and more popular among people in the near future. wow power leveling world of warcraft power leveling, I helped her with the socksI believe listening is powerful Medicine.

ceders123 Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 (edited) We have one in the pub supplied by Hanco. It charges £1.50 per transaction. Hanco get 25p, link get 25p, we get £1. Money for nothing. http://www.hancoatm.co.uk/ Like has been said though, you need a dedicated phone line for it and also you are responsible for filling it.

Guest ukpetes31 Posted May 31, 2009 Share Posted May 31, 2009 didn't there use to be a cash machine on the outside of the North Stand where the ticket off is?? mind you I'm going back a few years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
i used to be sc_owl Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 (edited) Just been thinking about this from another angle... People want an ATM at the ground because they want to spend money in and around the ground. ATM's are expensive to run and maintain. Also, the large amount of cash in an ATM (upwards of £200K per ATM in the bank I used to work in) is a security risk. So... would it not be better all round to just install chip and pin terminals on some/all turnstiles and bars in the ground? And isn't that what they are currently doing? EDIT - Also, if this is something the club wanted to raise money from, they could just charge a fee for using ones card for transactions under a fiver.

crookesowl Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 chip and pin is fine in the club shop... What about a pre-rder ticket printing service like at the cinema or at the train station? Finally, for buying drinks and such in the stands, just use cash. Everyone has a few quid on them. Its not such a big problem is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they took cards, chip and pin in other parts of the ground and at food kiosks, it would mean i'd have to get my wallet out. Bad times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
