The Co-operative, Suspends ATM, Cash Points, After a number of Incidents in the region
I can remember in the days before cash point raiders used tractors to rip machines out of
the wall causing considerable structural damage to stores, they used to target Co-ops
by breaking in and using acetylene torches, which somtimes resulted in the total destruction
of stores as was the case in Oakham some years ago. When that store was rebuilt the ATM
was given it's own little place in the car park. I wonder why they did not do the same at
the new West Road store?
The Store Manager could not comment about whether the machine will be returned to use.
But he did add he hope it would.
