Had a few of these the other day and panicked they were already out of circulation. Guessing it will be twenties soon.

I’m not sure they can refuse them legally.

They can. A shop has the right to refuse any transaction they want, say you went to pay for a new sofa in 1 penny pieces, would you expect the shop to accept it?

Their time is up from 1st March. Time to look under your mattresses!

The Bank of England will always honour the value of a banknote. So any bank will accept them after March 1st. They stop being legal tender on March 1st which means you cannot spend them.

I'm a bit like the Queen these days that I rarely carry money. It's all done by tap or nfc on my clever phone.

Plus I also beat the system by not actually having any money. Crafty

I paid for a parking fine once in one and two pence pieces and they took it. As for sofas I tend to use DFS 0% interest scheme.

£100 - for any amount

£50 - for any amount

£5 (Crown) - for any amount

£2 - for any amount
