They empty them and have been paying the funds into the charity's bank account via branches where they live. They are finding it much harder to find a bank that will accept cash these days.1

Think you'll find @Henry Irving accepts cash donations for the museum...🙄4

We had gone in McDonald's and we were told they had no chips.

10m people bank, with a bank, that doesn’t have a branch, cash use is dropping, despite of a blip in the last year. Cash is massively expensive to handle compared to card, and acceptance of card, and open banking will keep eating into it

Watch anyone under 30 pay for something. It’s invariably done by phone. The days of cash are definitely numbered.1

There’s a baker in Sidcup who will take it. Apparently he kneads the dough.4

In my last job a good few years ago now we sold fitted kitchens - it always baffled me the number of people that would go to the faff of going to the bank withdrawing ten grand in notes (which i'm fairly sure involved calling the bank ahead of time to do), then come to the branch to pay where it would invariably then go straight back in a bag and be swiftly taken right back to the bank the following morning (or even later that same evening)
I realise that is almost the exact opposite problem you are having but i'm bored so thought i'd share.4 -
This must be very worrying for the drug barons.5

Having been there with a load of coins from the egg box a few times when it’s broken I decide to bag the cash up and take it in. No - they don’t take cash. WTAF? I need to use the machine.So where can I take £700 of loose change?1

Just buy some more eggs with your £700 pound from another egg seller. Take those eggs down to natwest and see if they will accept those instead of cash?

Did you have the coins pre counted or just a large bag(s) of random sums?
On a positive note to your original question of what to do is it possible that if you returned on another day it may well work and you can get the coins paid in?

Nationwide took a load of our coins a few months back, about £57 worth if I remember. You had to bag it all up as per instructions depending on what coins, but they accepted all of it and credited the account.0

My NatWest has a cash counting machine, I’ve used it frequently without woe.2
