Their delivery service would also include card payment, little SumUp machines the driver would carry, so we would avail of it. Then they changed delivery to cash only and we simply stopped using them. 5 hours ago, Andy Onchan said: As is the Chinese takeaway next to the Cat with No Tail.

CrazyDave Posted September 1, 2023 Share Posted September 1, 2023 6 hours ago, WTF said: don't like paying finance service fees more like Banking cash is more expensive than running a card machine these days. There is no financial incentive for a firm to be cash only if they are banking and recording everything that comes in. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kopek Posted September 1, 2023 Share Posted September 1, 2023 Most Chinese take aways use a touch screen ordering system, this will leave a trail for ITax or Vat to check up on??? So not getting away from tax avoidance??? Could be the Chinese community have a system of cash to you and cash to the head of the 'CLAN' to get the outlet in the first place so maybe not the outlet operator? Either way, there are many ways for the tax authorities to estimate the turnover of a business!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t know what’s wrong with people. Just carry cash and cards to cover all eventualities. It really is quite simple. That’s what I do. Maintaining a cash balance of say £50 in your pocket or handbag should suffice. Its unlikely that any business anticipating a transaction of more than that wouldn’t have a card facility.

I had to use touch screen technology to order a takeout for my grandchildren, my 12 year old grandchild did the transaction. I still prefer cash. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m a bit concerned about these suggestions singling out a particular type of restaurant to perhaps being more prone to tax evasion. Or those that don’t take cards. You knew where you were with cheques. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
