A quick Google reveals the number is owned by Coca Cola. There is an alternative number for "Coca Cola" in the database.

I hardly think ringing someone at MMU will help when it's nothing to do with them.

The Coke Vending contact page gives 0800 137 424 for service. It's a 24 hours number for customers to ring. I presume that's customers as in buildings which house these machines rather than customers of the machines themselves. Nevertheless, I would ring that.

Or you can just fill in the online form for a refund. Indeed, the form gives the 0800 number right at the bottom for contact rather than the premium 0871!


I've added an entry to the database with this 0800 number and a link to the form.

Happy ending: Coke Vending at 0800 137 424 are sending a refund and it should be here before the students go back home. The operator also said that the cost of the telephone call to the 0871 number is refunded if requested. I did comment that in my opinion it would be better for the 0800 number to be put on the vending machine.

thanks for your help.
