/EINPresswire.com/ 6 AUGUST 2011 - DiscountVouchers.co.uk has reported that many UK shoppers remain uncertain of using their mobile phones for buying goods and services. The money saving website has polled UK consumers and revealed the results this week.
More than 70% of respondents stated that they prefer not to use mobile phones as a means of paying for goods - whether the technology has high levels of security or not. The survey showed that UK shoppers still trust cash and credit cards more in terms of security.
Doug Scott, managing director of DiscountVouchers.co.uk, says: "We regularly take the temperature of UK shoppers regarding lots of different issues, and right now shoppers simply do not like buying things with their phones. In fairness however if the security on phones is good enough, users shouldn't worry and distrust the mechanism so much."
