New polymer $20-bills not accepted by all machines

Commuters in Toronto have been complaining that the new polymer $20 bills do not work in some ticket machines.

GO Transit says that 25 of its automatic ticket machines are not accepting the new 20s. The machines were just installed in May and now it may be until February before the updates required are finished.

A TTC spokesman says they have already performed those updates but they are still receiving complaints from passengers.

    Re: the new polymer bills

    Already hearing stories about ATM machines shorting people on cash withdrawals with the new polymer bills being the problem.

    I hate the feel of the new plastic money...could we just go back to the old paper variety?
