They're only adjusting their offerings to cater for the vast majority of the population.

 

If you're one of the stubborn hold out that refuses to use a debit card, then that's on you.

If you're one of the stubborn hold outs that refuses to get a smart phone then that's on you.

 

Everyone else is happy, everyone else is not moaning.  The stubborn minority can get stuffed.

OOOOOO I say , not very empathic are you 😁

I went to Lidl at Malin Bridge this morning for a few items and it’s great now that they’ve installed some self serve checkouts. I only use it for half a dozen or so items so it’s ideal for me.

:thumbsup: Happy for you

Yes. Anyone who does have a so-called smartphone surely has a debit/credit card, either on it or as well as it, so let  card payment be permissible too- or instead.

Well , I don't have either on my phone , but I do know how to use cards , but some don't

Oh yes & half of the time people need an attendant 

Yep these self service tills are killing off attendants ...Internet and home delivery is already having a massive impact on shops

Self service tills in supermarkets for customers buying a few bits are good in my opinion as they keep queues down.

I was in Marks & Spencer's at Meadowhall the other day though and they have also installed in some clothing areas.  I think that’s taking it too far.  There seemed to be a lot of little glitches so the assistant had to run around helping just about every customer so I don’t think it really saved time and was good customer service.
