"London Underground said that fare dodgers will still be able to use
cheques to pay their fares, and fines, to ticket inspectors".
So only a fare dodger can pay by cheque. If I happen to lose my
ticket or I am mugged will I have to find some other means of payment
or would I become a fare dodger.


Does *anyone* still have a personal cheque guarantee card that isn't
also a debit card?

If not, then the difference that this makes to anyone is precisely 0
(since company cheques will still be accepted).


Yes I do - I refuse to have debit card on my current account - any dipping
into my money is limited to ME, by the time I get my statement it's going to
be much too late! Even more so when they go contactless (like Oyster) as
the criminals will just wave their thieving mitts near your wallet.

We have to make the stand NOW
