I’ve got a stack of £5, £10 and £20 coins that my grandma used to buy us all at Christmas and birthdays. We always thought they were worthless, nice to know I’ve probably got a fair few months of fuel tucked away.
only 'circulating legal tender coins' can be spent and traded with banks or a business. Banks, building societies and shops are NOT obliged to accept commemorative coins - and never have been - as they are not circulating legal tender. Some banks do accept them at their own discretion, but this is unlikely.
@@Ultra-Violet They are circulating coins as lots of them have been spent now. So they're now in circulation... Either way they are Legal Tender regardless so they cant not accept them if there's a debt to be payed. I suggest you do your homework before claiming whether you can't do this or you can't do that. As you evidently don't know what you talking about...

Spoke to someone today on South petrol who stated they don't except £100 coins asked if the pumps stated that he said he would confirm in half an hour by phone
Even if they put a sticker on the pump they still can not refuse legal tender to pay for the debt. I personally can accept the confusion the staff may have, but it's the rude and arrogant attitudes that are the biggest problem in these situations. I would have liked to see you just drive away (had you got a recipt) and filmed the aftermath.
What BBB is saying, is that even for a debt, they can refuse to accept LT. However, they couldn’t then successfully sue you for not making payment. That is where filming is necessary to prove the facts.
They have never successfully sued anybody for non payment in 7/8 years that this has been a thing, because they’ve ‘paid’. It’s never even made it to court. Never even a debt recovery letter. I spoke to a detective at Sussex Police who confirmed there would be no grounds for civil action. If they had grounds to sue, they would have done so, or even tried to by now.
This was filmed at Hilton park South Moto this company is a disgrace I had the need to report them to the trading standards which my complaint was upheld. Having a Costa bar and expecting one member of staff to make drinks whilst operating the pump's was and still is a violation of the regulations and is extremely dangerous!
Ain't refusing to accept legal tender breaking the law? Always ask for a receipt if they refuse report them to customs and excise. Also if they accept the plastic notes ain't they worth less than the coins.
Thanks for your response. I didn't think it would cost $100 to buy petrol, but I'm in America and we're used to relatively cheap petroleum. Thanks for the video, I like your work.
This station is BP (most expensive) and is on a major motorway (more expensive), it was around 15p/L above average for diesel. I paid £2.06 per litre. Which got me just shy of 49 litres. But taking into consideration I paid only £88 for the coin, makes it only £1.81 per litre. Which is still vastly above what it was this time last year.
That “manager” did an awful job of relaying the issue to her dirty manager- she didn’t mention that you had already paid or any of your legal arguments which was the most important aspect. It’s a shame you didn’t take the receipt that he offered as it would’ve been funny to see her reaction when you produced it.
*CLEARLY* the manager was out her depth here. Accept the coin, put in the safe with a note (date time car reg etc), sort it out later. Move on with your day. Your job is not to argue about legal tender with a customer in your shop.
@@nicotoscani1707 No it's because supposed alien abductees are insane. Are aliens real? Probably, got to be something out there. Have they been abducting humans? I highly doubt it.
The end result of all this really needs to be banks stopping refusing to accept these coins from retailers. The more people use them like this, the more pressure there will be on the banks to do the right thing and allow these coins to be deposited, which they should be doing anyway.
Garlic gorilla. I totally agree. People have no idea what the implications will be of a cashless society, something that it seems obvious to me that they are pushing for.
you should keep £100 pounds worth of pennies and if they dont accept the big coins hit them with pennies then tell them they agreed any coins up until £2 coins 🤔😂
1 & 2 pence coins are only legal tender up to 20p. So the most you could use pennies and 2p’s for would be 40p. Next time I go there I do intend on using the maximum of each coin. Which would be £40.40, and take them a long time to count!
This is a shop not a public building payed by tax payers. These cameras in stores are cctv for security of the staff and customers. And they can have a no filming policy nothing wrong with that.

*Because Tesco allowed a debt to be incurred by providing the petrol before the customer paid for it, they have to accept the customer's offer to settle the debt using legal tender currency. If they refuse to accept this form or payment, they cannot lawfully sue the customer to recover the debt, or have him arrested and charged with any crime relating to non-payment of the debt, because he has already made a legally reasonable offer to settle the debt in a form recognised as legal tender throughout the UK.* *It's up to them if they accept it, but if they don't then they can't sue or arrest him because he offered to pay with legal tender.*

I've had this exact same thing with £50 notes.

You've missed the point where they can refuse any tender you provide. Just like they don't have to accept 10000 pennies either. You need to learn trade law rather than having your 'Gotcha' moment and sounding like Mr. Bean.
So you intentionally used an irregular coin to cause a problem for min wage workers to prove a point? Why bother to even do this? Are you going to try ask change for a £50 note next?
The only one there who behaved appropriately and respectfully in that shop was the young lad at the start. Hopefully he wasn't disciplined by those dirty managers for accepting it in the first place.
Problem is, regardless of whether certain coins have legal status, banks often won't accept them, so why would a shop, basically your just being an arse
Well played my man, I think the first ‘manager’ is one of them who gains promotion purely based on length of service. As for the little child who was the ‘dutaaay manager’, well she was pathetic at best. Very poor show 🤡
The dirty manager actually made my coffee 5 minutes earlier across the road in Costa. I was surprised when she turned up as the highest authority… the whole fiasco was pathetic. The only saving grace was the lowest paid, youngest, least experienced employee, who was polite and professional.
@@AbsoluteAudits this is because at moto, one random manager is assigned as “Duty Manager” for their shift. All the duty manager does is respond to staff issues and be the final say in matters. Sally is just the unit manager of Costa, she’s no higher up the chain that either of the other two managers you spoke to that day. They just played Eenie meanie miney mo for the duty manager phone. Hell, when I used to do nights, I’d have the phone and I wasn’t even a manager xD
@@AbsoluteAudits I think it's sad that you go around causing problems for people who are just doing their job. Don't you think people have enough shit to deal with without you coming along with your petty, attention seeking squabbles.
That’s all part of the scam. The Mint have received public money to mint these coins, which they then sell to us at face value, and then make it purposefully ambiguous so that nobody spends them.
@@AbsoluteAudits I also heard that a guy bought a shed load of those coins to gain airmiles but the credit card company complained to the Royal Mint so the Mint instructed banks not to accept them instead of instructing the credit card company not to honour the airmiles. I don't know if it is true but I wouldn't put it past the Scumbags that are The Royal Mint, Card Companies that are one and the same as Banks also fuel cartels are included all Scumbags.
Yes, I’ve seen many videos like that, which is what made me interested in learning coinage laws. It’s been a 20 pence limit since 1971. However, a business can choose to accept more than legally required. The rest of the limits are as follows: 5 pence coins - up to £5 10 pence coins > up to £5 20 pence coins > up to £10 25 pence coins (crowns) > up to £10 50 pence coins > up to £10 £1 pound coins+ > any amount
I love your calm approach even when they don't like it. The young costa girl was very unprofessional and is in the wrong job IMO. This issue about commerative coins isn't rocket science, if these big companies its don't accept them then they need to display a sign at the pumps before you dispense the fuel. You as you know are acting within the law.
I paid a car park with a £5 coin once. Having tried to sell it for a little more as collectible value and failed. Love the irony of Money Money Money being played on the radio during the argument.
I said no out of habit unfortunately, but did subsequently request a receipt twice to no avail. They also removed the reward points I earned, so will be following that up too.
@@AbsoluteAudits They have no right to remove your club points you did pay. What gets me is they say I have not seen a hundred pound coin well that’s not your fault. Please 🙏 keep up this great work 😜💕
The fact the kid took it to began with id on the shop. Should have brought it up then or called over a manger right there and then. once he left after taking it its on the shop.
Video Summary • Person who runs the channel reads anything on internet and thinks he’s a lawyer. • Shops can turn away any type of payment for any reason. • You refusing to pay is illegal, your coin isn’t valid and if you drove away its pretty much theft lol. Also, cite your sources, what specific piece of legislation says shops have to accept all forms of currency.
You’re not grasping the difference between paying for goods in a shop, and settling a debt. I’m not buying fuel in advance; I’m settling debt for the fuel I’ve already taken. As the debtor I can choose how I pay, so long as it’s with legal tender. If I’m buying goods, like crisps, the shop can choose. Police have been called a few times so why haven’t I been arrested? I’ve called them myself to check and they stated I am within my right to choose. I can’t post links here. But you can google it yourself rather than being lazy, check my solicitors blog “Iain Gould”, he did a post about it. He recovered £5,000 compensation after someone was arrested for using one of these coins. Charges were denied by the CPS as these are legal tender coins and you can use them in this way. If you don’t want to educate yourself or have an open mind then that’s on you. But don’t try asserting falsehoods so confidently as if they’re true, it’s embarrassing for you.
It would be interesting to go to that garage and first offer payment in 2 x £50 notes. When they say they don't accept them then whip out the £100 coin. I bet they then say we'll have the two notes, but I'd say that ship has sailed baby...
The problem with that, is that in this video I was verbally told that they do not accept £50 notes. I will go with one of your “coin cakes” next time I’m in the midlands. Just need to locate some crowns.
@@AbsoluteAudits You want me to see if I can get some? I paid more than face value for the crowns. They are up to £10..I got a cake in the car.. Good to go when someone moans about 2 x £20 coins. The maximum you can pay with limited LT coins is £40.40.. Someone else will have to go back with the £50 notes. Where was it? Sheffield?
I wasn’t sure if you’d got them for face value from the royal mint somehow. Only place I found them were well over FV. But if you find any let me know, I do have a subscriber checking his mums house where he thinks he has some. This BP was Hilton Park Services, M6 Southbound. WV11 2AT. I was actually stopping by Clarksons Farm on the way back home, but because of these clowns delaying me I was 10 mins too late to get some overpriced chutney and Hawkstone Lager.
@@julianchamberlain5399 I will need another £100, I only have a £20 at the moment. But it’s become nearly impossible to get them below FV on eBay now. I paid £88 for the last.
How can they not accept a £50 note? I've worked in shops and petrol stations most my adult life and I've never not accepted a 50 pound note, and there's never been a problem.
Depends mate. I’ve had a couple of times where shops in my city stopped taking £50 notes. It was due to A LOT of fake £50s doing the rounds at the time. Lasted until they caught the guys behind the whole thing, then shops started accepting £50s again. The ones here couldn’t be detected by any tests the stores had as they were that well counterfeited. If there’s an issue with counterfeiting in your area, then shops will stop accepting certain notes, which is usually £50 notes. Dudes were going around all the shops here, buying 20 cigarettes, paying with the fake £50, then walking away with £40 in real notes……Wish I’d gotten some of those £50s 😂. I’ve also seen some dude in Asda having an argument with staff, as he’d tried to use a £5 coin to pay 😂🤣.
@@Acheron666 we had a problem with fake £20 notes around by me, we had to put every 20 under a uv light, or whatever light it was. Was a pain in the arse for a while, as everyone uses 20s. But luckily I never got caught out but other people I worked with took a few. A lot of farmers by me and they all carry 50s so maybe that's why we never stopped taking them, but can't say we ever had a fake one.
@@dcarbs2979 A lot of stores won’t take them, because a lot of people don’t even know they exist. £5 coins are collectors items…Still legal tender, but they are far from common. You won’t get them in change handed to you in shops and you won’t get handed them if you go to a bank counter to take cash out…….Literally minted for collectors and not a common coin at all.
Tbh, you was offered a receipt to begin with… should have taken it. That said they clearly not aware of law. Needs these companies to get their heads sorted so there’s guidance on it for the poor staff.😊
The key word what they don't comprehend is what it was intended for... £100 coin was INTENDED for commemoration and not purchase... The fact that it was intended does not mean there is no option to use it for payment in this matter. I agree, fuel paid. they could pay for their electric bill or fuel deliveries when they get their invoices after the fuel delivery tanker has been 🤣

Who’s the top hat in black claiming “filming is against data protection” 😂
Clearly making the rules up as they go along.
The Royal mint are issuing them but you can't spend them that's criminal and fuel cartels are criminal so it is the best place to spend them.
That’s all part of the scam. The Mint have received public money to mint these coins, which they then sell to us at face value, and then make it purposefully ambiguous so that nobody spends them.
@@AbsoluteAudits I also heard that a guy bought a shed load of those coins to gain airmiles but the credit card company complained to the Royal Mint so the Mint instructed banks not to accept them instead of instructing the credit card company not to honour the airmiles. I don't know if it is true but I wouldn't put it past the Scumbags that are The Royal Mint, Card Companies that are one and the same as Banks also fuel cartels are included all Scumbags.
What a snotty little individual that manager was. Great customer service young lady.
Great Audit, good works and educational too, keep it up respex.
Thanks for uploading! I successfully spent a £50 coin in Morrisons last week! Also have you ever noticed sharp edges on the £100 coin?
Do they take pennies? 🤣👍🏻
There’s only one way to find out…
I think there’s a limit to that.
I’m thinking £10....
Can’t remember exactly where I heard that....
Way less. 1p and 2p are only legal tender up to 20p.
I stand corrected 👍🏻
I saw it somewhere when a man was paying court fines wit a bucket of pennies 😂
Yes, I’ve seen many videos like that, which is what made me interested in learning coinage laws. It’s been a 20 pence limit since 1971. However, a business can choose to accept more than legally required.
The rest of the limits are as follows:
5 pence coins - up to £5
10 pence coins > up to £5
20 pence coins > up to £10
25 pence coins (crowns) > up to £10
50 pence coins > up to £10
£1 pound coins+ > any amount
bet they had a go at the boy staff being sound at the beginning after u left too mate
I love your calm approach even when they don't like it. The young costa girl was very unprofessional and is in the wrong job IMO. This issue about commerative coins isn't rocket science, if these big companies its don't accept them then they need to display a sign at the pumps before you dispense the fuel. You as you know are acting within the law.
the duty manager is also in charge of making costa coffee's as well?
I never see this coin
I paid a car park with a £5 coin once. Having tried to sell it for a little more as collectible value and failed. Love the irony of Money Money Money being played on the radio during the argument.
… any messages to anyone 😂😂😂😂 you’re a g
I would be happy to accept and swap it out for £100 of my own cash
He offered you a receipt 🧾 so please 🙏 always take them as they have accepted your method of payment 100%
I said no out of habit unfortunately, but did subsequently request a receipt twice to no avail. They also removed the reward points I earned, so will be following that up too.
@@AbsoluteAudits They have no right to remove your club points you did pay. What gets me is they say I have not seen a hundred pound coin well that’s not your fault. Please 🙏 keep up this great work 😜💕
Loving 🥰 your videos
You was an idiot for not taking the receipt straight away when they offered
The fact the kid took it to began with id on the shop. Should have brought it up then or called over a manger right there and then. once he left after taking it its on the shop.
This was great.. I'm going to have to try this fantastic video..
Obviously, the kid working there should be running that shit show.
Why wouldn’t you say THANK YOU SO MUCH!
Then go to the ATM, pull out £100 in bills and buy it out the till?
6:10 money money money by ABBA playing in the background 😂😂
7:38 she lookis like the kareniest Karren ever
But doesnt it tell you on the Royal Mint website that some shops/stores may *NOT* accept them?.
Yes, that applies to transactions, not debts.
Asking for your receipt did it for me 🤣🤣 my head off
Ey up nobody poor 👍
Sure she accepts donuts n Greggs pasties
Video Summary
• Person who runs the channel reads anything on internet and thinks he’s a lawyer.
• Shops can turn away any type of payment for any reason.
• You refusing to pay is illegal, your coin isn’t valid and if you drove away its pretty much theft lol.
Also, cite your sources, what specific piece of legislation says shops have to accept all forms of currency.
You’re not grasping the difference between paying for goods in a shop, and settling a debt. I’m not buying fuel in advance; I’m settling debt for the fuel I’ve already taken. As the debtor I can choose how I pay, so long as it’s with legal tender. If I’m buying goods, like crisps, the shop can choose.
Police have been called a few times so why haven’t I been arrested? I’ve called them myself to check and they stated I am within my right to choose.
I can’t post links here. But you can google it yourself rather than being lazy, check my solicitors blog “Iain Gould”, he did a post about it. He recovered £5,000 compensation after someone was arrested for using one of these coins. Charges were denied by the CPS as these are legal tender coins and you can use them in this way.
If you don’t want to educate yourself or have an open mind then that’s on you. But don’t try asserting falsehoods so confidently as if they’re true, it’s embarrassing for you.
They except one pound coins but not one hundred pound coins
Her squeaky brummie accent!
It would be interesting to go to that garage and first offer payment in 2 x £50 notes. When they say they don't accept them then whip out the £100 coin. I bet they then say we'll have the two notes, but I'd say that ship has sailed baby...
The problem with that, is that in this video I was verbally told that they do not accept £50 notes. I will go with one of your “coin cakes” next time I’m in the midlands. Just need to locate some crowns.
@@AbsoluteAudits You want me to see if I can get some? I paid more than face value for the crowns. They are up to £10..I got a cake in the car.. Good to go when someone moans about 2 x £20 coins. The maximum you can pay with limited LT coins is £40.40.. Someone else will have to go back with the £50 notes. Where was it? Sheffield?
I wasn’t sure if you’d got them for face value from the royal mint somehow. Only place I found them were well over FV. But if you find any let me know, I do have a subscriber checking his mums house where he thinks he has some.
This BP was Hilton Park Services, M6 Southbound. WV11 2AT. I was actually stopping by Clarksons Farm on the way back home, but because of these clowns delaying me I was 10 mins too late to get some overpriced chutney and Hawkstone Lager.
@@AbsoluteAudits pmsl.. I love Clarksons farm.. do you need more £100 coins?
@@julianchamberlain5399 I will need another £100, I only have a £20 at the moment. But it’s become nearly impossible to get them below FV on eBay now. I paid £88 for the last.
Hi, welcome back after your break. Nice to see you back on screen and a great video.
Educational good watch 👍
Everyone needs award for working with the public. But none of you should have your moblies on at the Petrol station
I love the way you keep so calm and dignified.
N word meltdown any different to "karen"
How can they not accept a £50 note? I've worked in shops and petrol stations most my adult life and I've never not accepted a 50 pound note, and there's never been a problem.
Depends mate.
I’ve had a couple of times where shops in my city stopped taking £50 notes.
It was due to A LOT of fake £50s doing the rounds at the time.
Lasted until they caught the guys behind the whole thing, then shops started accepting £50s again.
The ones here couldn’t be detected by any tests the stores had as they were that well counterfeited.
If there’s an issue with counterfeiting in your area, then shops will stop accepting certain notes, which is usually £50 notes.
Dudes were going around all the shops here, buying 20 cigarettes, paying with the fake £50, then walking away with £40 in real notes……Wish I’d gotten some of those £50s 😂.
I’ve also seen some dude in Asda having an argument with staff, as he’d tried to use a £5 coin to pay 😂🤣.
@@Acheron666 we had a problem with fake £20 notes around by me, we had to put every 20 under a uv light, or whatever light it was. Was a pain in the arse for a while, as everyone uses 20s. But luckily I never got caught out but other people I worked with took a few. A lot of farmers by me and they all carry 50s so maybe that's why we never stopped taking them, but can't say we ever had a fake one.
@@Acheron666 I've happily and easily spent a £5 coin before.
@@dcarbs2979
A lot of stores won’t take them, because a lot of people don’t even know they exist.
£5 coins are collectors items…Still legal tender, but they are far from common.
You won’t get them in change handed to you in shops and you won’t get handed them if you go to a bank counter to take cash out…….Literally minted for collectors and not a common coin at all.
Royal Mint Commemorative Coins are Legal Tender, But not registered as "Circulating Tender" over here in Aussie Land...
Tbh, you was offered a receipt to begin with… should have taken it. That said they clearly not aware of law. Needs these companies to get their heads sorted so there’s guidance on it for the poor staff.😊
The key word what they don't comprehend is what it was intended for... £100 coin was INTENDED for commemoration and not purchase... The fact that it was intended does not mean there is no option to use it for payment in this matter. I agree, fuel paid. they could pay for their electric bill or fuel deliveries when they get their invoices after the fuel delivery tanker has been 🤣

@@nicotoscani1707 These 9 to 5ers are just trying to make a living. they don't make the rules, they just follow company policy. This guy is just a bully.
@@asensibleyoungman2978 ........Following rules can get you hung.
ignorance is not an excuse its legal tender at the end of the day so they should put a sign up if they dont accept them 😅
Sad way to cheat people try buying shopping that’s the real challenge
