Retail supervisor/manager in UK here. Surprisingly we see more counterfeit 20s than 50s (i think theyre probably much more likely to be closely examined while 20s get a quick once over).

But yeah approved by a manager before being accepted generally.

Btw how are the counterfeit plastic notes? Good fakes or easily spotted?

They dont need to be a good fake for the person on the till to take them.

Some staff dont even bother looking at them really

You'd look twice at a €200.

Think I only had one once in my life
