Recently my mate found an envelope with £650 in old notes at the back of his wardrobe, he took it into barclays and they paid it into his account, no problems. I always thought old notes had to be sent direct to the bank of England?

When I was at Lloyds many moons ago we used to exchange old notes if intact. Didn't get any really old ones though - like large white fivers. Don't know if we could have taken anything from that far back.

Only notes that we gave customers a special envelope to were ones with badly damaged notes - current or old - often with some of the note(s) missing as well. It was up to them to send it off and deal with the BOE themselves in that case.

I don't carry much in the way of cash, and recently I had accumulated £500, in my back pocket, so I decided to try to bank most of it, using the local Post Office. Young girl behind counter, I gave her £400, she counted it, booked it in, I swiped my TSB card in their reader, typed in the pin - DECLINED. The girl thought, maybe too large an amount in cash, and so tried again with £200 - again DECLINED appeared on the screen. I'm pretty certain \i got the pin correct, but what might the DECLINED mean?

AML regulations?
 
AML kicks in at 3k I think. If you try to withdraw more than that it's a problem without a reason. "Buying a car" works I believe.

Just a few years ago I had a lot of expired "Elgars". A bldg soc said I'd have to take them to the Bank of England in London, which I knew was nonsense but they wouldn't have it. I paid them into a proper bank.
