We've had a run of plastic £5 notes in circulation in scotland for about a year... it's not really a huge problem. I handle fairly large volume cash transactions on a daily basis and at speed - this has always been a slight issue with new notes. In my experience, paper £10 notes are the worst for sticking. The polymer ones actually slide apart more obviously during counting than new paper ones.
This is why the first thing I do when I get a stack of crisp new notes... is crush the **** out of them . Then alternate them front-to-back and voila - no chance of two sticking together. It's also a strangely satisfying feeling. They're so fresh and perfect... sometimes you just want to destroy something beautiful... |

..it must be costing a lot of money to change them so doing it when it's only going to be a temporary thing seems like the dumbest thing to me...

..they don't always phase out with temporary currency..?..old currency is just phased out as the new currency is produced, so it all seems a pointless waste of money to have a temporary thing like that...

in fairness US dollars are actually much worse for sticking together and plastic notes only really stick when they're in mint condition. Loads of places do them now, Canada, New Zealand, Hong Kong, Vietnam Papua New Guinea, Vanuatu, infact plastic notes stick less than paper if anything.
