Generally just curious how often people on here in the UK tend to use it. Personally I use it 95% of the time due to privacy concerns, easier budgeting & wanting to maintain its use. Most people my age (early to mid 20s) seem to find the concept alien & I’ve noticed younger cashiers are absolutely garbage at calculating change mentally.
I use card for most of my transactions, but in cornershops, independent shops or smaller businesses i usually ask what they prefer. It’s not always cash! sometimes they prefer card as it’s easier for them to handle.
Interesting what you say about people your age, I’ve noticed actually that children/teenagers tend to use cash because they don’t have a bank account or any income to put in a bank account, but then when they get to 18+ they start using card more.
Good on you for asking! I hated having to deal with cash as a small business.
