Dear MEL Topic Readers,

‘Shops refusing cash left me unable to buy basics’

As the coronavirus pandemic shows no sign of slowing down, more and more small businesses seem to be shifting to the new normal, cashless society. Though not as radical and swift as China, stores that sell essentials like groceries and medicine are becoming reluctant to accept cash payment in the UK. Such a cashless move certainly makes the payment process more smoothly and swiftly while helping keep social distance and avoid direct contacts. But limiting payment methods also throws those who have no other payment tools other than cash out of the doors, such as elderly people, pension dependants, and daily wage earners.

Is there any way to receive cash safely?

Read the article and think of a future time when cash disappears entirely.
