Regarding the comments saying that we only accept cash because we want to avoid paying tax, we kindly ask you to understand the situation before making accusations.
Back in 2024, we did accept card payments. However, we experienced many cases where customers paid, consumed their food, and then cancelled the payment afterwards. As a result, we suffered losses on the food, lost the payment, and were also charged penalties by the card companies — £40 per transaction.
If you were a business owner, would you be willing to bear such losses?
We originally accepted card payments to make things more convenient for our customers. But in the end, why should the business be the one to suffer?
The truth is, we stopped accepting card payments because of people who took advantage of the system to get free meals. We are just a small business, and having several of these cases each year is something we simply cannot sustain.
We hope you can understand that it hasn’t been easy for us.
If we continue to accept card payments under these conditions, we would have no choice but to increase our prices significantly, as we would be making little to no profit. Is that what you want — more expensive Chinese food?
And for those who assume we are avoiding tax — that is simply not true. If we really wanted to avoid tax, we wouldn’t accept online orders or bank transfers at all. So on what basis are you accusing us of not paying tax?
If your only intention is to bully others online, it only shows how much free time you have.
As for those discussing free prawn crackers — please speak to our customers first. Have we really never given any away? Do you think buying, frying, and packaging prawn crackers costs nothing?
Finally, we would like to sincerely thank all the customers who understand us. We are truly grateful for your continued support and trust over the years.
