As we are entreated to move away from cash, so the charges start to appear .... Of course the banks don't make much do they ?
We are bonkers to put up with all this cr ap.

So easy to change and free too, but we need to do it en-masse. These modern day highwaymen need a foot right between the legs.

What government put us in this predicament with abolishing the truckers act and the right to be paid in cash and force us to have our wages paid into bank accounts and so give them the power over our cash?
Yes you got it our friendly Tory Party once again looking after friends in high places and not giving a stuff for the common person.

Terrible them Tories trying to stop the wages snatches of old.

kendor... so what do you think of Labour trying to stop the pensioners getting their pensions paid in cash at the PO, and insisting they have bank accounts instead?

the system was put in by your mates the tories so if you have a problem moan at them not labour!
as for the tories bringing in the law just to stop wage snatches, do me a favour! if you honestly believe that then you are more stupid than i thought. they brought it in to please their corrupt little buddies and make us pay through the nose for their nasty schemes.
