I’ve been working in the last few years of getting rid of big tech services. PayPal and Amazon are left. I’ve been questioning the need for PayPal in a world of virtual credit cards. My main reason for using it was security of purchase but I feel this need is no longer there. BTW, equivalent EU service to PayPal that is equally well accepted? Feels like this one may be more difficult to satisfy.
God I love dankort, amazing system. Really wished more people in DK made use of it. Britain selling their own card system out to MasterCard was a actual crime against the population. Apparently cash usage in DK has crashed since I was last there 5 years ago though : (.
Yeah - companies are, sadly, breaking the law here, and some refuses to take cash… But we are quite a few who stubbornly cling to cash.
Really annoying when companies do that, unfortunately here they’re allowed to as legal tender is basically meaningless.
Also just reminded me I have a few 1000kr notes I really need to pay into a bank next time im over there.
Well, then I have bad news for you - because they just fased out the 1000 kroner bills… :-( The highest bill now is 500,- kroner. Last day to use the or exchange the 1000,- kroner bill was may 31… :-(
Yeah Ik, its why I need to go and pay in the 5 of them I have lying around lol, the exchanges wont take them here. If nothing else I can probs sell them to collectors.
I hope you can!
