Cassowary Coast Bring Back Cash

Comments

#201

Cash us legal tender and better the economy. People should have the choice to pay with cash. It is not reasonable to ban cash, especially in light of the obvious instability of, and unfair random charges imposed by banks.

Cash is legal tender, itbis the right of the voting public to use Cash. If this should be changed it is not the councils decision to do so! It is the publics vote! 60%of the world's nations will be backed by Gold standard as Brics Nations continue to grow ..dont get left behind

As a pensioner I only use cash.

It is legal tender.

Going cashless is discriminatory against the less well-off in society and gives government and financial institutions total control over our lives.
A cashless economy is dependent on the power and communication grids, so when these fail in a natural disaster we have no means of buying food and other essentials.

Anthony Croft (Kewarra Beach, 2023-05-27)

#215

cash is a legal tender and a cashless society means more control over the citizens

Razele Zamora (cairns, 2023-05-27)

#216

I believe CASH should still be able to be use everywhere including at the CCRC. Taking away this right discriminates against a portion of society at are not set up for cashless transactions.

Kim Clarke (West Swan, 2023-05-27)

Accepting only cards is discriminatory towards pensioners, older people, poor people or people that simply can't afford or choose not to pay credit card fees,

Alannah Monteforte (Wongaling Beach, 2023-05-27)

#237

Cashless in this town where power outages are more common than a local cassowary sighting, is ridiculous.

And t
o add the amount of times rates has gone up, you better start doing more for the rate payers.

I want cash to be available everywhere. Our whole family uses cash on a daily bases. There is no reason for cash to be banned, we pay our taxes so we get a say!

Janelle Simkin (Bayview, 2023-05-28)

#246

You serve the people of Cassowary and not the other way around. Who gave you the right to force this policy down your constituents throat without asking them?

Gary Woolrich (Holloways Beach, 2023-05-28)

#247

I object , as I only deal in cash.
It is still Australian basic currency when the power ot internet goes down......

The push for cashless does not help when internet and power failures occurs
Cash is freedom of choice for all Australian citizens

#251

My elderly Mother 92yo and and a number of her friends still pay cash and still write cheques, but these are not accepted .they also do have computers or smart phones , so there is whole Generation just left out by a ill thought out decision made by the bureaucratic Council staff and Councillors who appear not to work for all their constituents ,

Lawrence Anastasi (Innisfail, 2023-05-29)

Cash is legal tender , nobody has the right to change that without our consent ,,, period ! 👍

Garry Craven (Millaa Millaa, 2023-05-30)

#257

I believe that while the Government prints money we should be allowed to use it in all venues not take the decision of CEO not to use cash

Sam Torrisi (SOUTH INNISFAIL (QLD), 2023-05-30)

#262

With cash I know how much I have and what I'm doing with it not eaten up by charges etc as for health how many people have actually gotten sick from handling cash if we can survive covid surely they can survive handling cash as we have for centuries get real people

Barbara Deery (Mossman, 2023-05-30)

#265

I don’t use any form of electronic payment due to a disability. Without cash I will be unable to survive

Elizabeth Butterfield (QLD, 2023-05-31)

#266

Because I believe we need to keep cash flowing in our community especially when we have power outages.

Chantelle Wignall (Ravenshoe, 2023-05-31)

#267

I am signing this petition because we cannot go cashless in Far North Queensland because of cyclones and power outages. If Cairns council can see they could not go cashless. I am sure Cassowary Coast should do the same.

Terrie Collins (Bingil bay, 2023-06-01)

#280

Cash is convenient, legal tender. I for one do not want to be surveilled 24/7, and being forced to be cashless is another ploy by the Powers that Be, to have total control over our daily lives. "They" say that we will own nothing and be happy!

Renata Egan (Mission Beach, 2023-06-03)

#281

We should have a choice

Carl Wells (Mission beach, 2023-06-03)

People should have a choice.

Lynn Jahnke (South Mission Beach, 2023-06-03)

#298

Cashless is unfair and it disadvantages many in our local community and what about when, not if we have another local disaster and THEN they want us to use cash when they have made it a cashless payment system. The local Police station also has a sign up refusing cash, they should also me made to change their illegal and corrupt ways.

Mark Stephensen (South Johnstone, 2023-06-03)

#299

Cash is legal tender,try getting money out of an ATM during power outages,Council out of line pushing this down our throats

Neil Boge (Mission Beach, 2023-06-04)

#302

I'm signing because cash should be available to every person who may not have access to electronic services to use their money to pay for things, I also believe taking away cash will affect younger generations in money management and other aspects of finances, I do not think taking cash away helps society in any way, what happens when the internet crashes and no one can access money to buy things what if those things are important like medications food and paying bills etc I don't think the move forward for cashless is smart in anyway shape or form

Jasmine Martin (South Johnstone, 2023-06-04)

#308

I am planning on moving to this area in a few years. Cash should be always available as a form of payment.

Michele Kicks (Figtree, 2023-06-04)

#309

I don't want digital currency and losing my freedom to buy what I want, when I want. Also, how can a unelected person make these changes without consulting the rate payers? Didn't they see what happened in Cairns?

Elizabeth Butler (Ravenshoe, 2023-06-04)

#310

Cash is legal tender. End of story

Karen Taylor (Mission beach, 2023-06-04)

I believe it should be my choice on how I pay for anything within my home community.

Sarah-Jane Cameron (Innisfail, 2023-06-04)

#313

I believe a cashless society is a step in the wrong direction, giving to much power to financial institutions.
As a home owner and Innisfail born and bred resident I believe it is everyone in this community’s right to chose whether theypay in cash, electronic or cheque.

Darren Kelly (Innisfail, 2023-06-04)

#314

I do not want a cashless society and should have the right to use cash anywhere

Karen Crowley (Cairns, 2023-06-06)

#315

Cash is legal tender and should be accepted first and foremost. Signing this for everyone who reserves the right to use money, especially our elderly.

Alix Kastner (East feluga, 2023-06-06)

#316

We the people in the cassowary Coast need cash for many businesses, markets , side road stalls ,fruit stalls etc. and to be able to pay cash any cassowary Coast facility. It is legal tender and we have the right to use cash at all times.

Michael Farrell (Mission Beach, 2023-06-06)

#318

We should be allowed payment cash

Leigh Mereider (Innisfail, 2023-06-06)

Cash is legal tender, EFT does not always work, I don't always have money left in account but may have enough cash laying around, right to choose.

Lynda Campbell (Innisfail, 2023-06-06)

#320

I am against going cashless in the Cassowary Coast Region. Small business depends on cash, children learn about pocket money and saving, and the list goes on.

Cindy McLeish (Innisfail, 2023-06-06)

Our choice. And that cash helps other people that are disadvantage.

I am against a cashless society..

Bec Smith (South Mission Beach, 2023-06-10)

#336

Removing cash use for everyday transactions is discrimination to those that are the minority in society that are challenged by alternative non cash payment methods and puts this cohort at risk or marginalisation.

David Wise (Townsville, 2023-06-10)

#338

I only use cash, for everything. Cashless society will be a digital prison.

Jim Gray (Mount Garnet, 2023-06-10)

I’m in support of all residents being able to pay with legal tender. The unelected CEO’s should NOT be dictating without the consent of The People!

Helen Yelavich (Mutchilba, 2023-06-10)

Cash is essential for independance, privacy, free choice and peace of mind.

Rosemary Gotts (Cairns, 2023-06-11)

#347

This is an illegal move, legal tender has to be accepted for payment of all bills. This push towards the "cashless society" is a power-play to control the people. If they can pull it off here, it will spread.

Simon Evans (Russell Island, 2023-06-11)

Puckey Brian (Mission beach, 2023-06-11)

#351

We need cash to stay. I'd like to have the choice to pay in cash or with card or electronically. I strongly oppose allowing only digital methods as this takes away my right to choose. It would also exclude certain demographic segments in our community (young ppl without their own credit cards, or seniors reluctant to handle digital).

Sabine Schroeder (Redlynch, 2023-06-11)

#352

If there’s no cash we have to do what the banks & SILICON VALLEY tell us what to do And if we don’t we “mysteriously” won’t have any $$’s in our credit card A/c’s How can ANYBODY (except the OLYGARKS) who are TRYING to run the world agree with this BULLSHIT????

Leonid Hadnuk (Brisbane, 2023-06-12)

#353

People MUST have the choice to pay by CASH.
It is a democratic right to have freedom of choice & be represented fully by the people we elect. Council is elected, as such, it MUST represent all its people.

Anne Thomas (Moonta Bay, 2023-06-12)

#354

I believe there is a need for cash especially for people who so not feel confident with technology. There is a population of Aged people who would not have access to there money otherwise.

Elizabeth Baulch (Brisbane, 2023-06-12)

#355

I’m signing because there is no need to take cash away - it is immoral for people to dictate these types of things without a referendum as a minimum

I use a cheque book n cash to pay accounts which this council doesn't accept .

Alf Basile. (Innisfail, 2023-06-15)

#364

I am a previous resident of Tully and was employed by the Cardwell Shire Council for close to 20 years. I cannot believe that a CEO thinks that he can implement this without having a full discussion at a Council meeting.
Ratepayers should have the choice how they pay bills and it should not be the decision of one CEO to take control how they do this.
Whilst money is still legal tender, how dare someone think they can deny people the option of using it!!!

Glenis Wilson (Mackay, 2023-06-15)
