I don't want a contactless card. We have pin numbers for a reason. Security. Without any security anyone with the right kit in their pocket sould scan your card by standing next to you (or so I'm told).

Contactless can still use a PIN, they aren't mutually exclusive. It is just for convenience that the banks allow small transactions without a PIN.

They moved away from batter? Still going strong around here.

Contactless is pretty cool. Certainly speeds things up at the till.
