From the ACCC site:

Businesses can choose which payment types they
accept. It is legal for a business to specify the terms
and conditions that they will supply goods and services.
This includes whether they will accept cash payment.
However, consumers must be made aware of these
terms and conditions before they make a purchase.

Businesses should be clear and upfront about the types
of payments they accept, and the total minimum price
payable for their goods and services.

Yep.

But you still have the morons out there who say "It's legal tender, therefore they must accept it" Roll Eyes

Yes if Banks won't handle ... what chance at any other business who chooses not to?

I love when you hear idiots say that stores who refuse to accept cash are breaking the law because cash is legal tender Grin

Morons

At the risk of being branded by your logic ....

Why isn't it legal tender.... & why should cash be refused as such?

Oh, it IS legal tender.

But that doesn't mean that shops are obliged by law to accept it.

Their "logic" is ass-backwards.

If a shop only wants to accept credit card payments, or EFTPOS, that's perfectly legal.

Yeah well ... I'd only have to be refused once at a business who did that....

then take my business elsewhere.

Yep. You're both within your rights.

Personally, it doesn't bother me.

It's their business, they can accept whatever they want - wouldn't make me think any less of them.

Yes but if my plans are inconvenienced & it causes me a runaround to address it because of their decision then I'll reconsider doing business there.
