There seems to be a for cash Vs a for tech debate going on. It's not about customers. They shouldn't be pointlessly arguing with each other. Responsibility for the elimination of cash goes to banks and government.

Isn't it wrong how many of the commenters above (and thousands of others no doubt) have been forced to live with the stress of having to check bank account balances 2 - 3 times each day. Thank you to the banks (sarcasm intended).

SDC, please provide useful and informative articles. The above one doesn't fit in to either category.

Over recent years I've seen people around me not observing the minute of silence. I am a first generation Australian but Australia is unarguably my home. I feel deeply for those that have sacrificed in service for us. Those who roam around or continue what they're doing at the 11th hour in...

Adult Crime. Adult time. I've often seen the release of the final product/service being subject to considerable amendments of the design phase. Have to wait and see what that ends up looking like 🫣.

I shake my head when friends and acquaintances say they love cashless payment options. They say they chose these options. I was a bank officer for over 2 decades and was compelled to sell various 'innovative' banking options. I saw older folk moved on to tech options by banks' strategies to...

I agree and the banks do not at this time have the capacity to 100% protect against theft of money or ID.

The government's cash mandate is aimed at compelling stores/service providers to accept cash for essential items. Essential items only (see attached). Essential items will be defined. (The definition will likely contain less items as time goes on). It appears that cards and other tech options...

Well said. Thank you.

With all the listed features of these innovative trolleys, I would expect that Coles would include 'wheel locking' to stop the damn things leaving the store carpark. I'm forever messaging the trolley collectors to come get abandoned trolleys that are an eyesore. Keeping them within store...

Yes, another way to render cash redundant.

Driving is a health hazard because of all the dropkicks out on the roads trying to take you out.

You just have to be out driving to see drivers of all ages driving recklessly/dangerously. Government funded testing every 5 years for the renewal of your licence.

I've been doing that too. The headline is often inaccurate and paras 1 to 3 give no real information. It happens a lot so appears that writers have a standard article writing framework that they follow.

I had payments for meals from YOUFOODZ appear on my statement. I've never bought anything from this business. My bank took my query about this and reimbursed the $500.00+ after 5 days. Happy they did this but feel these mystery debits have been enabled by all banks forcing online banking on...

Dear Christine, I wrote a few weeks ago when we were being asked to consider joining. We were informed that this would decrease the advertisements. At the time I noted that I felt more people would likely join if the cost incurred rewarded them with advertisement-free content rather than...

So far, all good 🫣. I think the printing on that sign had worn away over time. I've seen other signs where letters had come loose and some were hanging off the sign's surface so I think they use stick on lettering.

I recently had to park in a suburban street in Brisbane. I took a picture in case any mail was to come regarding my parking Please see picture attached.

Would not consider any Macca item as a nutritious food choice. When I do occasionally eat at Maccas, I feel like I'm being bad.

The 500ml Ovidio hand and body wash that's the 'bargain' is still $19.00. I don't think that's a bargain. It only looks cheap when compared to the Aesop product. There are several 500ml hand and body wash products in supermarkets that cost less.
