HSBC cash machine pays out double
Monday, May 21, 2012
Hundreds of people cashed in after an HSBC ATM machine began paying out double - and the bank said they can keep the unexpected windfall.
Some customers walked away thousands of pounds better off after news of the cash bonanza rapidly spread.
Long queues quickly formed as residents in the affluent village of Milford-on-Sea in England rushed to take money out.
After around 200 residents withdrew money over a two-hour period, police arrived at the ATM to close it off.
But HSBC said they will not be asking any customers to return the money as the mistake was theirs.
A spokesman for the bank said it was not the customers' fault.

"The machine was mis-dispensing and we won't be requesting the funds back.
"It is certainly not the liability of the customers."
