No doubt I'm just old, but I still like cash!  

One of my locals introduced card ONLY payment a couple of months back, they will not take cash anymore, seems very odd to me buying a pint with a card, but that's where we seem to be heading!

change your local possibly?

I have a £100 note in my wallet been in there a few year used to think it was a handy thing but if that's the carry on with a£50 f**k knows the grief I'd get with a big note!

I used to get paid in 500euro notes AKA bin-ladens (often talked about rarely seen) used to have a hard time cashing them in at times.

Never had a credit card,never bought anything on credit except mortgages,cash is king,always like the sight,feel and smell of paper.

A lot of our locals will take payments in bullets and metals. A few years ago when there was a .22LR shortage my mechanic serviced my truck for 1000 rounds of .22LR.

Tell ye what annoys me an has got to point I refuse to phone anybody to pay a bill, tried it a few times an they wanna spend 10mins confirming who I am????

Try doing it in the colonies with a thick Mancunian accent. I still can't go through a drive-through because I end up with nothing like what I ordered!

We have a local insurance office and I pay in cash their every month. When I first opened my accounts I had to write down what I needed on paper because they couldn't understand me. Looked like I was holding the place up when people walked in behind me.

I certainly know how Vijay Henry Patel feels when he phones up from Mumbai the local call centre.

very presumptious of you,lol i always have insurance /tax/nct...im a good citizen .obedient  and compliant..

i pay cash as much as i can, never go to the card only petrol station or use the self service machine at b and q as they do a person out of a job.

once it becomes card only your kids cant even earn a couple of quid shoveling snow in winter ffs.

Try speaking Glaswegian anywhere In England I feel daft cos  I’m always repeating meself

I always did alright with Glaswegian as my dad's side are from Caledonia. Geordie was the hardest for me, especially the inebriated sub-dialect.

After Visa's f*ck up you'd think that more people would see the benefits of cash... Not holding my breath though.
