EDITOR — Everyone is aware of the challenges the country has in terms of accessing cash. We have challenges in accessing basic things like cash, and power but now many uncouth business people are capitalising on this crisis.  At most fuel stations, fuel attendants are refusing electronic money in favour of hard cash. What is mind boggling is that everyone is aware of the situation with regards to cash but they are just making it hard for motorists.

Getting cash is difficult these days and those who have the cash usually charge premiums. The government sadly is aware of this and is taking no action to rectify this situation. Just this past week the Puma Service Station  along Willowvale in Highfield was doing this.
Despite having POS machines, the fuel attendants were saying that they don’t take virtually money.

It is quite unfortunate because they were even refusing to take coins. We wonder if this money is banked or supplied to the black market. 
Disappointed.
