For those of you in the UK who still use cash

@Thevy29 a few smaller restaurants in uk have signs up asking for cash as they get bank charges. Some of them say an extra £2 for card payment OR have a minimum spend amount.

@meggie it feels like a ripoff

@Thevy29 a lot if people are too lazy to cook and pay fees to delivery companies and then are expected to also tip the driver. People are making lots out of the food industry now.

@meggie It doesn't cost anything like two quid to process a credit card transaction unless the price is a couple of hundred. And debit cards are cheaper still. Even charity shops have stopped asking for a minimum spend these days; I bought a book in BHF Dover yesterday for a pound and paid with my debit card.

Those places asking for cash are probably cheating on their taxes.

But I do think that one should always be able to pay cash, shops should not be allowed to be card only.
