Have bank notes been changed?

[Randombiker9]

So i've been wondering if the £5 note has it been changed? as i had to get some shopping and got a 5 pound note in change and was given one that doesn't look like the ussual bank note it's very different as i have not seen the one i got before

both £5 and £10 have been changed recently.

both £5 and £10 have been changed recently.

Where 'recently' was 13th September 2016 for the £5 and 14th September 2017 for the £10!

The £20 is due to change from 2020.

Do you not get out much?

Perhaps she usually drops fifties and gets a minion to pick up the change.

When are they changing the £1 note ?

 

[Globalti]

I like the plastic notes and can't understand why we have put up with paper for so long. You can leave them in all kinds of pockets, wash your clothes then get a nice surprise when you next wear them.

 

[AndyRM]

When are they changing the £1 note ?

They're gonna do a special edition for Scots abroad in England which says "Aye it bloody well is legal tender" on it.

Do you not get out much?

No because most of my money are in bank card and since that day i lost £25 in cash i don't keep any more then £10 and i was only getting milk. i had no coins at the time.

When are they changing the £1 note ?

We don't have £1 notes we're not American.

I was asking as i've never seen a £5 note with the Clysdale bank written on it etc....

That's easy to answer '
At the very same time as they change the
9 bob note !

Two different issuers, hence the difference.

Ah, well, if you had asked about Scottish £5 notes you might have got different answers!

(If your info said that you were somewhere in Scotland it would have been a reasonable guess, but maybe not for Berkshire?)

looks like your neighbours have some scottish relatives visiting, Clydesdale bank notes are very common up here.

The Clydesdale Bank has been issuing its own banknotes for 170 years but if you live in England it's no surprise you haven't seen one.

All Scottish banknotes are legal currency throughout the UK (they are approved by the UK parliament) so can be accepted for any transaction, it's up to the parties involved.
A retailer might not like to take it from you but any bank will.
