Too many fakes currency circulating in the past and they have no choice .

my niece is 14. her dad gets her a youtrip card. monitor how much expenses, overspend thats it cant buy Liao.

cashless probably good for the stores because prevent staff from pilfering as the main reason rather than the 'convenience'

those on the mvno telco will know suddenly the cashless payment can gg one at the worse possible moment then the queue can end up longer than paying cash

Now at their retail outlets. Got set up table n personnel to try ask ppl to sign up for online betting.

I almost 90% online bet with sg pools. But I still want to buy big sweep which still not available for online. The toto match also not available for online too.

They approached to sign up before but I told them I wanted to buy big sweep and they back

When u become your own boss one day . U probably change your mindset of having cash payment over cashless .U know u could save money on manpower and time .

If unlucky . U even receive counterfeit money note . Then u will realise cashless is not bad after all...

Sorry. I insist cash. And i won't let those net and visa master earn my commission

 

[hardindex]

U try sue lor.
Who u going sue? The govt? MAS?

ROFL...

So if a hawker or café refuses to take cash, they’re likely in breach of MAS guidelines. You can report such cases to the Consumers Association of Singapore (CASE) or MAS directly.

Next time when we old till unable to walk, how to ask helper to buy things for us if all the stores go cashless? Not safe to pass the debit card to the helper, she can use it to buy her things. Whereas we can limit the cash that we give to the helper.

I disagree ... why must we follow tiongland? they are they, we are we ... we also have digital payments but we should not idealised and do forced digital payment as the sole mode of payment in order to be considered as what advanced or developed or what not ... tiongland likes to show to the world they are very "advanced" but all these are just very superficial and we should not follow them for such vanity ...
