Little Victories
I recently received a £2 voucher from a supermarket after complaining vociferously about the poor quality of their own-brand Rich Tea biscuits, which I spent on more tasty, tasty biscuits. Tell us about your trivial victories that have made life a tiny bit better.

Yes, I did - but thanks for being a patronising cunt. The vast majority of those not directly stocked by the bank are owned by some outfit called BankMachine, who do not seem to offer self-fill (and are, incidentally, on record as having made this mistake more than once, taking full responsibility, and not pursuing those who took advantage). Your links seem to be two two relatively minor smallfry, and frankly, can be safely ignored.
Now, your much-vaunted research - what proportion, do you think, are stocked by the cornershop owner? I'm going to go with 'practically none', as every single one I've ever seen has been prominently branded - but please feel free to reeducate me if you know any different.

Bankmachine market themselves to "large" organisations (councils, universities, regional convenience chains, etc) and probably have market share. And yes, they are managed, and the organisations they position themselves against prefer this as they have better pricing at banks for their notes, operate primarily non-cash environments, or are simply to large to have any adequate control over a self-fill machine
Sole traders will almost all use self-fill for the reasons outlined previously, and Hanco is actually a very big name in this market (subsequently subsumed into YourCash somehow).
The corner-shop aspect suggests a sole-trader, which suggests self-fill. Although I guess it's possible the corner shop in question was a Sainsbury's Local, in which case ripping off the bank-provided ATM is fine and dandy.

it was a branded large chain of cashpoints
it was clearly malfunctioning.
Get over yourself you twat, clearly I would only keep it if it wasn't owned by a large company. I think the shop assistant got money out as well so calm down.
