I'll try to explain

You buy summat for £20 or less, you put the card on the machine and the transaction goes through.  No PIN number entered for some peeking bastard with a photo memory to remember (or using mini cam to capture)  So if you get robbed later they don't have your PIN number for emptying your bank account.  And it's heaps quicker.

Well, whatever, nevermind

So if someone nicks your card and spends less than a score he doesn't need your pin number.......... rubschin:

Indeed - if he visits several Off Licences and buys Voddy (£15.99) in each would he get extremely pissed at your expense?  rubschin:

My new one came. It has the contactless feature. I am dubious  rubschin:

Is this more technobollockswitchcraft or is it OK to use?

Like what you did there . . . .        :thumbsup:
"Political Correctness is a doctrine fostered by a delusional, illogical minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end." 

Well, someone had to say it!
