brandenjg Posted June 2, 2016 Share Posted June 2, 2016 Hi everyone, just spotted this online and as far as I'm concerned it's been a long time coming. British bank notes are switching from paper to polymer. Maybe my money will survive the british boating weather finally. http://www.bankofengland.co.uk/banknotes/polymer/Pages/default.aspx Branden 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ranworthbreeze Posted June 2, 2016 Share Posted June 2, 2016 Hi Branden, Thank you for the update, Tan mentioned this morning, my reaction was that plastic note was rife for being counterfeited. As with all of these schemes they always end spending more money than they save. You could say plastic money If its not broke why fix it!

All currency is counterfeited eventually so it will be interesting to see what security measures they put in place for the new notes. I can't imagine it will be too far in the future when they completely faze out all money and make it digital. e.g http://www.techtimes.com/articles/102366/20151102/chip-implanted-under-skin-used-pay-things-using-bitcoin.htm 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
