The Bank is now prosecutor, judge and jury. After chip-n-pin was introduced, the banks started 'deciding' that if a correct PIN had been entered, the customer was liable by default. The 2009 legislation was brought in partly to reverse that situation. |

So how do you prove that *you* didn't make the transaction? I think the boot's on the other foot http://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2.../contents/made god knows where in that lot though ... Section 62. Unless the cardholder can be shown to have acted fraudulently, their liability is strictly limited to £50 for over-the-counter transactions where either the card has been stolen or the cardholder was negligent, and zero for any other wrongful use and all distance transactions (with a few, fairly limited, exceptions) even if the cardholder was negligent.

[I assume that it's not as simple as drilling out the contactless icon]. If it's like our cards at work (mifare classic) then a small crack at the edge is enough to break the antenna and stop it working :-( Darren Surely *someone* has access to an X-ray machine so that we can map how to disable them without shafting the chip! They've moved the wires for the aerial away from the edge as far as I can tell. Whether this is to help stop them getting broken through flexing or whether it's to make it harder to disable them, I'm not sure. But recent experiments have found that the aerial now passes close to the right hand end of the signature strip rather than the left hand edge. http://www.woodall.me.uk/barclays/ Tim. -- God said, "div D = rho, div B = 0, curl E = - @B/@t, curl H = J + @D/@t," and there was light. http://www.woodall.me.uk/ |

Ah that reminds me, I had about half a dozen barclays debit cards (from when they were apparently unable to issue me a working combination of card and PIN) ... did I keep them? ... Probably ... but *where* did I keep them? ... |
