Here is a real stunner for you Roger,we have always taken different currency,from the days of Austrian Shillings US $ even Italian Lire,so when the other part of Europe went with the Euro we took that as well as $ US and Canadian.Our machines even give the prices in Euro's.Then one of our senior Managers decided that we no longer took them,because if they don't have £'s they will have a Credit Card.
So virtually everyday we turn down Euro's and $'s and send people down the bank or to the cash machine or they pay by Credit Card....but......we get so many people come thru without a Credit Card late at night including last night and we can't except them,they can't get thru the barrier and there are no banks open, yet on our ticket machines it gives the price in Euro's stupid or what.International Gateway?
Yet in my travels in Germany this year I could have paid in £'s or $'s on the train for food etc.We have argued our case but the answer came back,this time written in no uncertain terms .WE DO NOT TAKE EURO'S.
