Recently traded up to one of these from a fiver, it's great - hardly any bigger yet when you go into a shop you can get twice as much stuff for it.
My decision to trade up was due to the fact that the fivers I'd previously owned didn't last very long, but it seems these problems haven't really been sorted with the more up-market tenner, I foolishly thought that being twice the value it would last twice as long but it's proving not to be the case.
Still I only paid £10 for it so can't complain too much!
Considering a twenty next but am still a bit worried about longetivity  |

Yes England and Wales do have to accept it as it is legal sterling tender. |
