At the moment maybe,also have anyone put this to the test? so if someone used my NFc card or even phone if I lost it to take many out of my account this morning, I could go into my bank and get it back there and then?
i don't think it would happen like that.

They can, which is why most of the time it is left at home. they can also do that without you losing your card as I found out a few years back, when I had three lots of £60 paid to the same company one after the other, how the hell my bank did not pick that up I have no idea.
Took weeks to get it back and it took me even longer. to to get the tenner back that was used to top up a t-mobile phone to check if my card was still valid. i have never had a T-mobile phone.
This why now I check my bank account everyday without fail.

You may think it is nothing, I don't. chip and pin is not as secure as people think they are, that have been proved,, so how on earth can a card that can be read by a touch be secure?

i don't need it, I know other people who don't need or want it and yet they are still forced to have this card and no way to disable the NFC part.

You really think they done this for us? They done it to make more money.

I don't think they will, maybe on credit cards, but they don't seem to be rushing on debit cards.
We will see what happens, i still got 14 months until my card expires.
I dont think so. You have to go to bank, withdraw cash then go back and then pay instead of just paying with card.
