The only good thing to come out of Covid is that we almost went cashless, most of us anyway. No one is sure when but it will happen within a couple of years if not sooner.
It is good to go cashless as it will cost the gov less ie save some money we pay in taxes
Massive tax collecting bonus when the cash-in-hand trade dries up
Those on benefits could have their spending controlled for the better EG, stop them from spending money on cigs, firewater, gambling or restrict it to minimums.
Those bleating the poor will be hit hard, the gov could raise Family Credit to initially compensate for any impact they have
Can't wait - think about - we do our supermarket shop o line paid by car, amazon, ebay, screwedfixed, argo, john lewis, m&s - fuel, bills, and even most odds and ends via card/online and even the fish n chips is now via card. I can't actually think of anything me, my OH and one of my children that lives with us pays for with cash. We don't do, rarely do public transport and even they have some type of card.
All flights are booked card as are our hols, cars bought and sold via online payments, serviced online pay - hnad the plumber out a few months ago, online payments
Are people in favour of cashless - reduces germs spreading as well.
Time to go cashless!!!
