Cash or Card?

[Josy]

Do you make payments by cash or card?

[Benjamin]

card

[Daniel.]

Depends sis

[Jordan.]

Card I rarely ever carry cash

[Calderyon]

Before debit, i paid with cash.

Nowadays, just card. Usually.

[Black Dagger]

I prefer cash. Just because card payments take longer transaction wise.

such a busy life

[Black Dagger]

I don't like card payments taking a couple of days to leave my account that's all.

[LukeB]

Card

[Jason.]

Both.

I use card in well-known places like the supermarket or when shopping for clothes at clothes stores. But when I shop at those shady looking places, I use cash :laugh:

I also use cash in restaurants and things like that.

[Jordan.]

[Benjamin]

[MTVN]

Cash if I can, annoys me these days how everyone pays for everything on their bloody card even if it only costs a few quid

[Jay.]

card, i never have cash

[Jason.]

I'm the same. I usually use card when I purchase something which costs more than £35-50. Like if I went to Tesco and brought like 3 items for like £4 or something, I would pay with cash. It annoys me when I see people paying with card just for a pack of donuts or a pint of milk or something.

[Firewire]

Normally card if it's a place that has a chip and pin. Cash for restaurants or corner shops though.

[Calderyon]

Adding to:

Always pay with card, even the smallest purchases. For vending machines, i use coins.

[Jay.]

how do you do contactless tbh?

i got a new card last month and it says nothing about contactless like is lloyds just in the past or s/t like what

Idk nattiest just sent me one coz I switched to a student account...you should ask your bank about it.

you put your card on the screen instead of inserting it inside the slot..it does it without the pin.. so people can use your card if you lose it.

[armand.kay]

but once I pressed the wrong side of my wallet onto the oyster thing on the bus and it snatched cash from my bank.

[Firewire]

It should have a symbol on it that looks the the wifi one. Only some chip and pin machines accept them. You just wave it over the screen.

[LukeB]

cards should not be contactless tbh

[armand.kay]

People can still use a regular card online and stuff you just call you bank the minute you realise its lost and all's good in t'hood.

[Brother Leon]

Depends on the size of the transaction.

Ahh good point, forgot about that tbh :laugh:

[Babayaro.]

Always cash. I've never paid with my card for anything

[MTVN]

Think £20 is the maximum for contactless payments anyway isn't it

[Jake.]

[LukeB]

[Jay.]

[smudgie]

Card.
Never have cash on me hardly.:shrug:

[Iceman]

Both. I pay all my bills by card but usually take half out of my bank in cash.

[LukeB]

[Calderyon]

Surely you can order the card through your net banking account?

[Niamh.]

Same :love: I use cash mainly but if I don't have any cash on me then I use my card

[BigSister]

Cash unless its a shop that I trust and I don't have enough money on me then I use my debit card. And obviously online I use my debit card too

[Crimson Dynamo]

card

i dont carry cash really

[jackc1806]

apple pay (basically contactless)

normally card tho cash is an irritant

[Vanessa]

Card usually. I never carry cash. If i need it i go to a cashpoint. :spin:

[Crimson Dynamo]

i like the ones where you just put your card on and it beeps and thats you paid

:hee:

[Jessica.]

Cash, since I moved to Portugal. Used my card all the time in Ireland though.

[Ashley.]

Card for online stuff (obviously) but Cash for everything else. The last time I paid via card I kept getting my PIN wrong, it was embarrassing.

Also, I am quite frugal so taking a certain amount of cash instead of my card gives myself a budget so I don't spend stupid amounts.

[zakman440]

Mostly card, but all I really buy is train tickets and something for lunch when I'm at college.

[arista]

Cash

and

Business Cheques

[Tom4784]

Depends on how much,what I'm buying and where I'm buying it.

In supermarkets I'll nearly always use my card since I prefer to the self checkout machines. If I'm buying something expensive I'll use my card since I don't like carrying too much cash around.

[arista]

I use £50 notes alot

[Crimson Dynamo]

I use £50 notes alot

Not in my Spar you wont be as they have banned them

[Smithy]

Card, I don't like using cash because I lose it or the loose change makes my wallet heavy, I only pay cash if I'm going somewhere that doesn't take card

[Jack_]

I generally hate using my card because I like monitoring how much I'm spending as I go by making an ATM transaction and then seeing how much I have left in what amount of time as opposed to waiting for a monthly statement or something. The only time I'll ever use my card is if I'm buying something online or I have forgotten to get money out and can't be bothered to do so. Quite often I'll leave a shop to go outside to the cash point so I don't have to use my card.
