You would think that ATMs wouldn't screw up frequently, but you would be wrong
Comment from : @themalcontent100

2023 Update: The new vending machines they installed at my workplace work either via the classic banknotes or via an app that you can install on your phone The app allows you to communicate with the machine via Bluetooth and order your coffee or whatever you wanna get and it gets the money directly from your credit card (no Google Pay or Apple Pay unfortunately, despite me literally begging them to introduce the feature) The Vending Machine also has a classic 24 GHz Wi-Fi antenna to process transactions and report to the maintenance when it's running out of components (coffee, sugar, cups etc) All in all, it could be better, but AT LEAST there's some progress in 2023

One afternoon in the high school, I had a friend who kept trying to force a $5 into a $1 machinebrbrEventually the machine took it I laughed He got his $5 sodabr it gave him $425 in quarters

Now I want to design a cleaning bill I can put in, like one of those CDs with the lens brushesbrYou'd just spray some isopropyl on it and give it to the vending machine, and by the time it spits it out, the heads/lenses will be relatively clean Weird youtube engineers pls help

Comment from : @iknowmyname7

Wait, what? In the US, you have to use cash to use a vending machine in 2022?brIn my country, literally every vending machine accepts credit cards Some of them accept ONLY credit cards
Comment from : @bethus2391

Wait, you 'merkins still put dollar dollar bills into vending machines? Haven't you ever heard of paywave?
Comment from : @birkett83

Comment from : @SupraSav

Even when we had Dollar bills in Canada, bill readers weren't common It was always weird to see on trips to the US
Comment from : @brianbarker2551

I went to the car wash a few weeks back there was a dollar coin stuck in the slot that accepted dollar coins yes the US has dollar coins
Comment from : @imark7777777

coin readers aint much better i'd say, but often if a coin is rejected changes are you have a fake

Why Vending Machines don't use contact less payment option like scanning a qr code to pay the money?
Comment from : @smith4591

I love this guy
Comment from : @abvmoose87

Why don't they just add a little brush on a motor to clean the sensor off
Comment from : @rileymannion5301

TLDR: Money is grimy and gross

Comment from : @EagleMitch

Most vending machines in Europe don't take bills, but that's okay, because we have 1€ and 2€ coinsbrThe vending machines I've seen take all coins but the 1¢ and 2¢ coins (So that's 5¢, 10¢, 20¢, 50¢, 1€, and 2€)
Comment from : @Matty0311MMS

We in germany even have 2€ coins
Comment from : @blainx2852

$1 bill? get rid of the bill, and use coins :) works so much better! Not sure why it is a law which requires the $1 bill to always be around
Comment from : @wolphin732

Or when they steal your money
Comment from : @9852323

We have $1 Coins in the US and I use them in Vending Machines all the time :P Whenever I get change from stores I ask if they have Coin instead of Bill, and most do
Comment from : @flambokuma2299

In Europe we have 1 and 2 euro coins
Comment from : @norma8686

Why do vending machines spit out coins? sometimes you have a couple of coins that are perfect, clean, shiny but one is accepted and the other one is not I once had this problem and I had to run fast to another department just to borrow a different coin and avoiding losing my coins lmao
Comment from : @bynlb

Here, in the UK, a lot of the vending machines I've used recently accepted contactless (and regular cards)
Comment from : @badwolf9090

America has dollar coins wtf
Comment from : @mojesticrhino8527

Coins are problematic too, here in Czech Republic are probably just a few vending machines accepting bills but almost all of them take coinswhen it likes your coins of course
Comment from : @DreitTheDarkDragon

"soulice"?
Comment from : @oppsbrokeit6485

wow never seen a vending machine accepting bills xD It's just coins man But recently 99 of them also accept cards
Comment from : @give_me_my_nick_back

4:20 nice
Comment from : @NeXtarProducts

When i went to school there was wending machine that woud give money when you pressed the coin return Button and smacked on its side at The same Time
Comment from : @joonastammeslehto6887

OK We know what the issue is "You know it, the manufacturer knows it, and, NOW, I know it also" The question remains though What can we do about it? I mean, other than changing the entire currency (which is about to happen, anyway) You know those (cleaning sheets) for a printer? Maybe a couple of those could be attached to the machine? Or, even more easy A brush of some sort, that will clean the sensors that could be activated on a (every dozen bills) I mean, the solution is not hard It would just take a little extra money to build And people are fueled by greed (which is the REAL problem) SO {Why Vending Machines Spit Your Dollar Out?} Because people are greedy more than that Scrooge character by Dickens
Comment from : @vangildermichael1767

Maybe adding connectivity to a service center would solve the problem 🤔
Comment from : @dominikschutz6300

(edit: Adressed) Silly Americans just use coins for values of less than 20$ and your vending machines won't have as much problems
Comment from : @nngnnadas

I just used one today that spat change out in dollar coins and didnt accept them No chance to buy a second item
Comment from : @accreations

Just let us pay contactless already!
Comment from : @plagosus

For me the reason is it only takes euros
Comment from : @JuusoAlasuutari

This exact thing happens with coins too
Comment from : @alexmilioris

stop using fiat and use nfc cards! (or hey have you heard about those smartphones?)brbrGood video tho
Comment from : @shufflecp

Whatever kind of machines MTA uses for the NYC subway could crank through anything you fed em
Comment from : @Jasruler

That's why I'm glad that most all vending machines take cards nowadays
Comment from : @twithnell

Coins are better indeed, but even more so: Cards! Glorious cards or digital payment options now that we have our heads in «The Cloud» all the time 🤷🏼‍♂️🤪
Comment from : @AndersEngerJensen

@Techquickie - brjust use 1 to 5 US-Dollar Coins (similar to the Europeans & Germans) instead of low value paper money
Comment from : @Killerspieler0815

"JUST TAKE IT!" I can feel that frustration
Comment from : @thedave1602

I prefer the vending machines that accept contactless payment solutions
Comment from : @davidfrischknecht8261

You have to flip the $5 note around
Comment from : @hughsgarbagetrucks

Why stop at the 1 dollar coin? Lets use 5 Swiss Frank (about 512 USD) Only problem is that they have size like the 1 Rubble coin which is more or less worthless
Comment from : @Zurich_for_Beginners

Coins get rejected all the time too, so it wouldn't be much better than bills I suppose those sensors get dirty just like with bills
Comment from : @Jdbye

Funny video since basicallyno one on the internet today has ever put a dollar into a vending machine Most normal people anyway We all use our phones Was tempted to call it fake news too
Comment from : @samuelevans5750

Ironically "dirty bill slot" was my high school nickname
Comment from : @ianyboo

I recall a kid once found a way to make a vending machine open up, and he just kinda nabbed his money back while it was stuck inside Powerful
Comment from : @mzov_1724

As someone who doesn't know what cash looks like today, I can't say I have had this issue in a long while brbrMind you I still use vending machines I am still a poor man but most of the machines I see have been converted to cashless NFC varieties Because the owners of the machines don't really see any gain in handling hard or floppy cash
Comment from : @jmalmsten

Or just make them accept cards Printed money is still dumb
Comment from : @Spymask-AoC

I’m from Europe and we have 1 euro coins but they sometimes also get rejected
Comment from : @marioferrari4626

Hmmm vending machines in DK are now take payments with mobile phone apps It is very rare to see a machine take paper money anymore
Comment from : @Stormbrise

i can put an older dollar bill that the machine will take easy but god forbid i use a brand new crispy one
Comment from : @shlongest4437

Just use coins like us Brits ;)

Comment from : @Alexrocks1253

Wouldn’t the coin machines have a lot less issues?
Comment from : @vinstaal0

we use credit cards in saudi arabia in newer model of vending machine
Comment from : @abost3ve

About that $1 coin, The US actually has one We just mint it in small numbers and most vending machines won't accept larger than a quarter brbrAnd amusingly our half-dollar, when it was still minted at all, is even bigger than the dollar coin which itself is just slightly larger than a quarter but is gold colored I don't know if gold was ever used in it or when they cut the gold content if it was Also I think US $1 coins lack the ridges on the rim
