Myself and my wife both use cash for everything that we buy on a regular basis unless we're buying online, how can anyone possibly budget using either debit or credit cards you could never keep track of your spending, which of course is exactly what the banks want so that before you know it you're in debt to them and paying exorbitant interest rates on your debt.

The idea of going cashless is being driven by the banks purely to increase their already massive profits.

They have already shown how ruthless they are in this pursuit by the closing of so many branches, cutting counter staff to a less than bare minimum all in the name of pure greed, they want complete control over us, if they don't like your point of view they will close your account, if you try paying cash into the bank they have the audacity to demand to know where it came from and I'm talking about £100 from a personal experience not a very large amount I'm sure you'll agree.

We will never use internet banking as it's so obviously open to abuse which the banks seem unable or unwilling to put a stop to and when peoples money is stolen they put the blame on the victim.

We as a civilised society have to keep cash to have any sort of freedom from the corrupt world that the banks have become.
