Can't remember the last time I paid with cash at a bar or in a pub

judging by the poll I put up a while ago, it seems few are bothered about being able to use cash... except 1!

Maybe we should do a poll, how many people are happy to pay using a card and how many will not go in if it doesnt take cash. Saves all the argument. Separate section at top where you can set one up. I'll be along to vote cashless shortly....

Or, instead of a poll. How about providing the means to pay with cash? If no one uses it then get rid. Job done.

News to some on here, but Bobs Board is 50 blokes and a couple of women arguing with each other on a daily basis and in no way represents the actual support of the club. There are plenty of people who prefer to use cash, many of them elderly. Why do you want to prevent them doing so? Bit weird really.

But crack on if you want to make your poll. I won't be voting. I vote with my cold hard earned cash money. And like the other businesses who've gone cashless, CFC no longer see a penny of it. That said, I wouldn't be spending on the overpriced bilge they turn out anyway.

so you dont like the product and wont buy it but we should listen to your view....

I'll think of that as I am giving the club £20 or so tomorrow on my card as I generally dont carry cash

Are those who want to pay cash happy to pay the extra costs of dealing with it - from the time it takes on the concourse, to the counting and reconciling after the game, to the paying Loomis or whoever to collect? Adds up to way more than the small fee most card issuers charge according to our Treasury team.

I don't care if you listen to my views or not.

You do realise the bank skims off Merchant fees everytime the card is used? If you actually think that amount is less than the cost of counting some cash and getting it to the bank (not to mention sales lost to cash users) then you're a bigger idiot than I thought.

I’d imagine there are a few on here who are self employed and appreciate the opportunity to have a few beers paid for with cash.

Well I have stats that prove it is. (Excluding the sales lost as we have not found we have lost any)

Only one idiot - and its not the one sitting on a bank of stats as they have done it themselves for their job.

would you be suggesting that they are trying to spend their cash so they dont have to declare it? Hush your mouth - but if so another good reason to do it. Tax cheats are as bad as benefit cheats....

With the benefit of hindsight I preferred the days when purchasing a good pint constituted handing over cash to the value of 1/11d

Worse, monetarily if not ethically.

Would you take the moral high ground on this if paying one of these tax cheats in cash meant you paid a decent chunk less for the work?
Or would you stand firm, pay electronically and pay a couple of hundred more?

I’d genuinely like to see your figures on this.

Benefit cheats putting nothing into the economy yet tax cheats are generally still purchasing materials and goods, employing others, buying fuel, running vehicles which need maintaining and so on.

They may be taking more out than benefit cheats but surely they’re putting much, much more back in?

People who take cash in hand to avoid paying tax are scum, so are the people who encourage it. Its no different from the rich and famous partaking in Tax avoidance schemes except most tax avoidance schemes are legal.

I even pay my window cleaner electronically.

Tax avoidance is illegal. Tax evasion is illegal. Tax mitigation is legal.

You have an ISA? Simplest form of tax mitigation.

Yeh you're probably right about middle income cash-in-hand workers who under-declare their earnings, but for high level super rich tax cheats, nah.

I bet there’s plenty of space up there on Gods right hand.

At least your can sleep well in the knowledge that your tax is helping the benefit cheats, I suppose.
