There has definitely been a big swing in recent years largely driven by contactless I suppose. I went to a couple of Ashes tests this summer and normally for a sports event I take out a load of cash because everything is cash only and the temp cash points there charge about £5 to withdraw but was surprised when I was there that actually all the bars were card only

Still think it's too ingrained in a lot of people's lives to be eliminated though. And people are entitled to a private life which you just cant be confident about with card payments. Other thing is that the government are still spending a huge amount of money redesigning our notes and I think they recently decided not to scrap coppers so we're generally still quite committed to cash as a country. I think there'd be a big backlash at any attempt to phase it out
