Some bright spark will copy it, I'll give it a fortnight before the phonies appear, these guys are ahead of the game.

At least while they are doing that the will leave Scottish notes alone for a while. Dosnt matter how good the B of E gets at making banknotes there will always be someone who will make an excelent forgery and pass it on to the gulliable.

Re: New £20 Note

Well unless ant Queen Street or Waverley Station I wont see one for a while. Besides they will be treated as forgeries as soon as they cross the border.

Re: New £20 Note
It looks weird and feels odd as well. Rather reminds me of monopoly money.

Re: New £20 Note
I got my first one from the bank today - Lloyds on TSB, held it for about two minutes then bought a hunk of beef from the butchers and spent it.

But yes, agree, it feels a bit weird, may be because they're all new they're a bit crunchy.

Re: New £20 Note
These could actually save me money. I got 3 out of the cash machine yesterday, and they were great, so great infact I didn't want to spend them! (i did though.... oh well!! ) I really like them, are they going to change the 10's and 5's eventually to?

Now that is something that does need to be scrapped. I don't see the point in having them at all.
