Card Machine Motherwell

I was taking a walk down Motherwell Precinct today, and there's loads of companies down there, loads of businesses, like, eh, the one-stop shop, there's Greggs, the Fair Shop place, there is, there are lots of different businesses down there, and I came across one today, and they didn't take an e-pass system for car payments. I was shocked. I even said to the guy, hey, why do you not take car payments? And he said, I like cash. I say, okay.

When you walk past Motherwell Precinct, all the way up to the Turkish Barber on the left, and McDonald's on the left, and the traffic lights, you walk straight past that, and you come upon Digby's, the alcohol place, next to the railway station. When you walk right past that, you come across the roundabout, which takes you right into Fordsburgh.

Now, when you come to Fordsburgh, there are loads of little businesses around that area as well, and I came across a little shop, and I got my card out to pay for a can of Coca-Cola, and the guy says, I'm sorry, I don't take card machines. And he says, I've never taken card machines for the last three years. I say, why not? He says, because I like cash and I don't want it that way, because, I like making more money. I say, well, fair enough.

The Motherwell Vibes

It' been a memorable as a handed place, and there are tons of businesses in Motherwell that take card payments, but there are tons of businesses in Motherwell who are just catching up, because they think by taking car payments, every single penny is accounted for. Because a lot of small businesses love some of them walking out, walking and paying stupid amounts for something, and putting it right in their pocket.

I mean, that's not taxable, that's money straight through them. And to be honest, that's why the government's pushing car payments, because they want to stop that kind of carry-on. And Motherwell's no different, so get a car machine, and you'll be going their way.

They don't really like a car machine because they can't force you by law, not yet.
