Nat West recently sent me a replacement Credit Card, with this Contactless technology. I immediately thought I don't want this. What's hard about shoving a card in a slot & typing a PIN?? Plus I wondered if it could be abused...
Then I see these pics knocking about today, claiming to show someone on the Underground with a Card Scanner. OK, so Tech Radar claim this is all bollocks, but I know when I've had magnetic cards in hotels & work sites, they usually work in the wallet. So what's the truth on these things??
