Stop card only payments - Allow cash payments too!


Stop card only payments - Allow cash payments too!
The Issue
After the effects of lockdown, card payments were encouraged due to covid 19. Although the measures were necessary at that time, alot of the public particularly elderly rely on cash payments as their preferred service.
Pressure from closing banks, technology and lack of face to face service aswell as corporate moves to save money have pushed people to rely on online banking. This may be convenient to some but we must all have the freedom to choose how we pay!
Not everyone has a card or know how to use one. People are afraid of their accounts being frozen. What happens to them if we live in a cashless society? This also intercepts freedom of speech (many public figures have frozen accounts due to 'Hate Speech')
We are not against card but cash is essential! From the local business to the homeless person that needs a helping hand let's make a change and let our voice be heard.
