The comment says "Wrong entry, It's a 100-Euro-bill, sorry".
In such a case the system should ask the second user to confirm that the value really is what he has told it to be. Maybe he misunderstood that, declined the confirmation and entered it wrong value to gain a hit?

I know it's not the most clearest case with the confirmation message, but a case described by me would also be a very rare opportunity.

So I don't know how it it. Just speculating.
Living away from Euro zone in the beautiful Vancouver, Canada since January 2012. Experiences and stories of living in here can be found in here (in Finnish).

What if there has happened an (USER) error while inputting bill information to the system? I tested this, there was no problem in feeding 20e bill as 10e bill. There is no way to check the value of bill from serial number...?

Will EBT correct wrong bill information and credit your ID when you have this kind of hit (someone has fed wrong information to the system)?

Quite simply, we prefer that people would enter correct information to the system.

If the user who has entered the incorrect value asks us to correct the value, yes, it will become a hit if that note had already been entered.

Of course. :wink:

I understand there are limitations and that this no official business. Just wondering however. Thanks for the comment.
