Anything that has a volume that I listen to has to, simply has to be on an even number. My wife loves me so much she now does the same. That, or she's as stupid as me. Just think how distressing being in League One for three seasons must be for him. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thorongil Posted June 10, 2021 Share Posted June 10, 2021 I cringe with anger and embarrassment at people who don’t use Apple Pay (or it’s inferior equivalents) when buying things in shops and petrol stations. watching them fumble about and put their cards in the wee machine and type in their pins is just hard to watch. make your purchase and move! only exception is old or otherwise vulnerable people. -7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would you go out without a smartphone? Contactless is unsecure and is very limited. What is it, £45 now? Apple Pay is much more secure and there is no spend limit. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The banking industry in this country are of course renowned for rolling out insecure technology. I use contactless. Very few times I’m actually spending more than £45 except online. Only once I can think of in the last few weeks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If someone picks up your card they can very use it. That’s not the case with your phone or watch. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That makes apple pay more secure. It doesn’t mean contactless is insecure. If your card is lost or stolen then used fraudulently the bank will refund the money. The risk is on their side, not the consumers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
