Or a middle aged bloke given the option to use contactless. But prefers to go to the ATM and get cash out then claim its "just as handy" And gives no viable reason for not using technology. Then like a muppet scramble to grab notes and coins to make sure they have enough. Then wait for change which will be a load of coins. As well they are hypocrites- instead of withdrawing from branch they use technology cause it is quicker and handier. Mental. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SallyCinnamon Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 Not sure why but this thread has proper made me laugh. Don’t use cash anymore. Used to always, last 5 years or so that’s changed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s the obvious leap from asking for advice on an upcoming interview on the turnstiles to the cash v card debate. Makes a change from Brexit/ COVID anyway! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Used to always, last 5 years or so that’s changed. I don’t use cash or card anymore as Im totally broke! I’m planning on reverting to the barter system now. I’m trying to get the ticket office to let me know how many of my home grown veggies I can swap for a ticket to Doncaster at home. It’s a tier one match so it’s going to be a good few KG’s of potato’s that’s for sure! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can’t get a 250k mortgage by disclosing 8k a year but whispering to the advisor that you do 50k of fiddle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EcclesallOwl Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 (edited) Where are all these, definitely not made up, experiences of people struggling to tap a card/phone/watch happening? If it doesn’t work the longest thing you have to do is enter a 4 digit pin Edited August 4, 2021 by EcclesallOwl 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
