Not sure how cash would have made a difference here.
Work progresses on the basis of a cleared transfer or cash in hand, both are the same thing. With Okso transfers these days a transfer is almost always instantanous, same as taking the cash in the hand.
But customer could have easy given CB a big FU follwed by the finger as they retreated into their house.

Haven't seen a discount for cash in a longtime, unless you are talking dropping the GST... Which from a business perspective is starting to get a little hard.
Also I don't know why businesses would give a discount on a transaction media that is infinitely more expensive to administer. From a business perspective I can understand why businesses favor EFT only, given how ridiciously expensive it is becoming to provide cash as a payment method.
