Can't answer that one, but then there seems to be lots of things they manage to do that we mere mortals can't
I thought that’s what golfers did
Not disagreeing with you just what I was told by someone who couldn't by an ice cream without a card.
Carrier bags of cash. I have seen it happen.
pay, steal ,ring take your pick

'Legal Tender' is a term with a very specific and limited definition, and which doesn't have any practical application in everyday transactions.
It also varies depending where you are: in England a Wales, legal tender covers Royal Mint issued banknotes and coins; in Scotland it is only Royal Mint issued coins, but not banknotes. In either, 1 penny and two penny coins are only counted as legal tender up to a value of 20p. Scottish banknotes don't class as legal tender anywhere (not even in Scotland!)
Cheques and cards are not counted as legal tender.
In legal terms, it is entirely up to the seller as to what form of payment they will accept or decline. There is no legal compunction to accept any particular form of payment.
No, it isn't.
The £500 will be the maximum that the business has decided that it will accept in cash payment. A seller may impose any limit on any form of payment that they wish, but there isn't any blanket legal restriction.
You can if you wish and the vendor will accept payment in cash. You just have to be able to show where that quantity of cash has come from to satisfy money laundering regs. There isn't any legal ceiling on the amount of a cash transaction.
Mind you, I doubt whether anyone would want to risk carrying tens or hundreds of pounds around to do so?
I didn't know that, must adversely affect pubs like Weatherspoons who have high turnover but lower gross margins
it's not realy a debit card, its a pre-payment card that has to have money loaded onto it. Go Henry is much the sameNatWest been advertising on the radio a young persons bank account with a debit card. Minimum age is 6 years old . World's got mad
I've always wondered how the caravan dwellers pay for their flash cars.
I hope so

Best laugh I’ve had for ages that. He’s got a small business and worked very hard all his life. Not sure where it came from, one of those situations where it’s best not ask and just carry on. I know it wasn’t crime but then it’s probably illegal to have that much cash nowadays.
It's called a prepaid debit card by NatWest

What’s wrong with that? Would you rather kids weren’t given the tools that they’ll need in later life?NatWest been advertising on the radio a young persons bank account with a debit card. Minimum age is 6 years old . World's got mad
Fair point but at 6 I think they'd be better of learning with the real thing (cash). I can think of quite a few young people who never see cash and have a handful of cards. they're mostly in debt with bad credit rating and no chance of borrowing for their future (homes etc)

Maybe, but if pints are a fiver then easily worked with notesI went to a pub near a Premiership football ground recently, just after kick off. Signs up on beer taps “Cash only”. I only had card, they said “It’s ok, we just put those signs up when we’re busy to speed up serving.” Occurred to me that contactless card is probably quicker than taking cash, giving change, etc
