    daytona, the point i was trying to make was that yes, they maybe technophobes now, but in 50 years time will you be in the same boat as them because of the technology at that future date. You dont need to try and explain, i understand you exactly

    Disagree entirely. People who can deal with technology now are unlikely to be phased by something as simple as a self service till in 50 years.

    The people who are currently phased by a self service till are the same as those phased by anything more complex than opening a fridge door.

    Some people just don't do technology of any kind. It's beyond them.

    Sounds like everyone I am stood behind in a cashpoint queue

    Like the ones who print off a mini statement & proceed to stand & read it for 2 minutes on your time before they decide to draw money out.

    Don't start me on the ones with multiples cards

    I remember reading a thread about someone who was approached by bolshy staff and accused of putting fake money- off vouchers into the voucher box. (some people will just put a bit of paper in to make it look like they have put in the correct voucher apparently).

    I wouldn't want to be put in this position,cos if I was I would "sue and demand compensation".
    I prefer to know my transaction has been witnesses by a human.

    How many billions would you sue for then? You'd have to phone all the papers as well. Have one of those pics of you where you do that look unhappy customers do in their photos (actually with most of them thats probably just their normal facial expression).
