I have seen this many times in Teesside and miraculously they find the cash or get a friend to pay either cash or card.
Contactless declines mainly because it's been used as contactless for a number of times and you haven't used the PIN number for quite a while. This is one of many reasons. The company don't collect the payment until the end of the day (roughly just after midnight) so it's not declined because of funds in your bank.
