They need to do something to improve their communication. But this. Really?

As I understand it if a site doesn’t comply and fineing them isn’t an option Ofcom can apply for a court order to, indeed, compell ISPs to block them.

Then it just gets blocked in the uk and you’re back to having to use a vpn.

That wouldn’t solve anything

No, they’re notes. What I’m saying is your logic applies equally to bank notes as it does to cheques.

By that logic bank notes are not cash, only coins are cash.

Look at a bank note and read what it says: " I promise to pay the bearer on demand the sum of five/ten/twenty/fifty pounds" the the signature of the governer of the Bank of England (or whichever Scottish bank issued it). They’re literally promissory notes in lieu of cash.

I think it’s just some people have realised it pays well.

Because people are reliant on debt because wages haven’t kept pace with expected standards of living.

Of for more ago well off people some cards offer perks like cash back or air miles and it’s free if you pay it off in full each month.

Also, in my country at least, you get more protection if you have an issue with the goods you’ve bought. https://www.moneysavingexpert.com/reclaim/section75-protect-your-purchases/

No it doesn’t. Shops pay transaction fees and pass that cost into all customers equally whether they’re paying cash or card.

Taking physical cash, counting it, loss of cash through error or malace, buying change, physically banking it (taking it themselves or using a cash collection company) costs businesses too. So actually maybe they’re passing on the cost of this rather than the transaction fees.

Oh, yes. Reading it again you’re correct. I was looking for the number of letter on the sentence. When it clearly says of. Guess I don’t deserve to vote.

A

I think.
