I know for a fact that Halifax cash machines will suck it back in.
I once withdrew £40 and because i was too busy chatting, walked away without picking it up.
I checked my balance a few days later and I was not down £40 !
My next statement had a £40 credit directly below the withdrawal...

Had the machine suck it back in once when I put my card away and grabbed the receipt first. Of course that was on a weekend. The bank cleared it up on Monday. Now the machine I generally go to gives the money out after the card is retrieved with a reminder to take the cash. (not because of me)

I would have to assume that it is set up the same as if you left your ATM card in the machine and take the money back into the machine if it not taken after so many minutes. I'm not sure, call the bank and ask them.

This actually happened to me once. I hesitated for too long when chatting to a friend. The money simply got taken back into the machine an the money was recredited to my account two days later.

Consider it a gift to the next person who uses the machine. It's good as gone.

I believe that after a certain amount of time it takes it back into the machine, but I'm not sure. Your bank could tell you. Obviously anybody could take it before then, but how can you miss that bleeping noise those things make telling you to take the stuff, it always seems to make me panic!!!

The next person to use the machine gets a bonus.

The machine will take it back in within so many seconds and recredit your account. unless the next person grabs it if their is a Q or some one walking by. Try it I dare you!!!!!

The bank will probably lie to you and imply that the money would be taken back and the transaction cancelled. But in reality - the next user will get your money.
