Does your bank branch handle cash or is a Not Bank (tm) that doesn't actually handle cash ?

Creeping into Australian banking is more and more branches (while bank branches still exist) that do not handle cash anymore. That makes them Not Banks (tm).

There are not many traditional branches left in the UK, but those which survive are generally helpful. Tbh, the main reason for a physical branch remaining must be to deal with cash receipts. I take the children in with the contents of their piggy banks (good for numeracy and general financial education) and no one says anything.

@butterflybaby75 I don't mind getting rid of cash

I haven't used cash in years. It's all apps these days

I think banks are a necessary evil and I despise the fact that am forced to use them while they abuse their position to generate obscene profits and management bonuses.

Not banks are even more obscure

@mindless I'm the opposite - I like control over how I use my money and what info orgs are allowed to collect about that usage.

@butterflybaby75 I understand. One of my prime reasons against cash is the (violent) crime around cash and cash machines

Mine takes cash just like they always have.

Don't you have ATMs?

@Guardian They are going away too. Any time a bank branch closes down usually any atm's it did have get removed as well. atm's lull people into a false sense of 24/7 convenience though and bank branches have traditionally always been m to f (not public holidays) 10 to 4 or in modern times 9 to 5 so if you wanted money, you went when the branches were open and got proper money from a proper bank teller at a proper bank.
