Cash transactions were up last year by 7% 2nd rise in 2years. More people are using cash.every thing is getting more expensive.if i go shopping .say with £60 in my pocket, and I spot an item say £65 .then I can't buy it. If I have £60 in a bankaccount.then you think sod it I can use my overdraft and pay for it.whitch costs more in the long run.besides there are still a few million older people who don't use computers or smartphones with bank apps.who rely on their local post office for cash.
