    Casual dining chains struggle with shifting tastes of customers

    I know people are not that bothered here about this, but they've been in the UK nearly 40 years. I went there occasionally when I was there. They've done a partial rescue package there and have shut 35 branches leaving 51. And TGI Friday stands for Thank God It's Friday.

    Banks face pressure to adjust practices amid new regulations on debit card surcharges

    Why will it take unto 2026 just to ban these fees? 🤔 That'll be 8 years after the UK banned them. 🙄 However, there'll still be charges between the banks, and retailers will still be charged but won't be able to pass it on.

    Westpac, St George and Bank SA customers hit by outage

    Didn't even know about it until I read about it after. I was on the app a few times while it was supposed to be offline. And as for "Outages can be stressful". No it wasn't, not for me anyway.

    Senate starts inquiry towards Bunnings, IKEA and Petbarn after allegations of market power abuse

    All the ACCC will say is that's very bad and that will be the end of that. 🙄 There's large companies because people that started them done well for themselves when they started and the companies have carried on. Anyone can end up with a large company if they know what they're doing. And lots of...

    Who on earth still wants to use cheques? That's really old fashioned backwards technology.🙄 Obviously you've got to quote the elderly to make it sound worse. 😁 This forum is called Senior Discount Club so I assume there must be "elderly" people on here? How many of them feel discriminated...

    Avoid a costly mistake: Learn how this simple bin act could cost you $312!

    That's just ranting. 🙄 You vote every 4 years for councillors who decide what's best for the area and its residents and what the relevant rules should be. So really they are your bosses. In this case they're sticking to council business by telling people about their bin collection.

    Avoid a costly mistake: Learn how this simple bin act could cost you $312!

    Good idea. I live in a small narrow road and 7 houses were built by a well known house building company and all the garages face onto my road. In the planning permission for them there was a clause which stated that the bins should be stored behind their side door during the week. An area was...

    Avoid a costly mistake: Learn how this simple bin act could cost you $312!

    So it's ok not to take any notice of any council rules as all they make them for is extra revenue?🤔 I assume you just leave your bins out all the time as the rules don't apply to you?

    Are these fees draining your bank account? MP scrutinises major banks for 'sneaky' surcharges

    I've only got a debit card, actual card and on my phone, from Westpac. I only pay by card and the last time I was charged was a couple of weeks ago in a restaurant. Other than that I don't remember the last time. It's not as bad as it seems in shops, however the worst people for charging is any...

    Westpac axes cardless cash withdrawals from their ATMs nationwide

    Very good summary 🙂👍 I would think they introduced Cardless Cash to help their customers. Then it seems like crooks have found a way of abusing this system which the bank may be finding it too expensive to keep the scanners away so have given up on trying?

    Westpac axes cardless cash withdrawals from their ATMs nationwide

    Been with Westpac for some time. Didn't even realise there was cardless withdrawal.🤔Although I never use cash so wouldn't affect me anyway. Got my card in my wallet if I need it, but always use my phone to pay for everything. Much quicker and easier.👍

    Westpac axes cardless cash withdrawals from their ATMs nationwide

    So you can see their argument about increased fraud, then state the usual conspiracy theory about cash being stopped and then say the banks don't do anything to help their customers. 🙄🤔 You were correct on the first part. They're helping people not fall victims to fraud.
