I mean, since the last time I’ve visited: it seems like no one ever carries it. I prefer it because CC charge additional fees (which end up making the item cost more) I have a small rant about that: STOP RIPPING OFF PEOPLE WITH THOSE SURCHARGES?! (It should be 0 rather than 1%) as it may seem trivial, they add up overtime. Are stores allowed to refuse cash payments outright despite them being legal tender?

    No, I hate cash and love the convenience of card via phone. I just don’t think it’s fair that if someone chooses to pay via cash, or a lower surcharge card, etc, that they are burdened with the cost of every one else’s choice. I’m happy to pay extra for what’s convenient for me and I think this concept of card fees meaning you don’t pay the “real cost” is idealogical nonsense, especially when you can get service fees, convenience fees, digital ticket fee, etc, etc. A good change would have been regulating reasonable costs by the bank.

      You seem to have missed my point.

      In my business cash is much more costly than card payments.

      Cards are absolutely subsidising the people who pay cash.
