=?ISO-8859-15?Q?Applepay__=A330?=
Topped the car up with £60 of diesel, went to counter to Applepay and
it wouldn't accept it if more than £30, I have never used it for fuel before, but where I have spent more than £30 it has been accepted. Is this a filling station thing? |

I have no idea what the actual limit from Google/my bank is. |

Is this a filling station thing? There was something on the radio (R4 I suspect) about this awhile back. As I recall, there was a £30 limit, which has been removed, but retailers need to update their terminals. Having said that, my recollection is that the programme was some time back - ie probably at least a year. I don't use Apple pay, so it isn't a problem I've encounter. I was a bit surprised that 'contactless' was recently accepted in France without a PIN on first use. My recollection is that last time, I had to enter a PIN the first time I used it on a trip. |

Andy Burns laid this down on his screen :
Yes, most pumps seem to have an improvised sign stuck on them warning they don't accept ApplePay above the £30 contactless limit. I wonder why fuel stations and not other places, when exceeding that £30 will be quite frequent? |

Applepay 30 uk pounds
No mine says if you want to pay more you need two transactions. Its much the
same as contactless cards. there are rumours that this will be relaxed though so a bigger incentive to steal your card or phone. Brian -- ----- -- This newsgroup posting comes to you directly from...

Applepay 30 uk pounds
Brian Gaff formulated on Friday :
so a bigger incentive to steal your card or phone. With the phone, they would have to also steal my face or my thumb. That was the whole point of Applepay, it was secure - needing you to be present with your thumb or face, so no need for a pin even for the largest or smallest transactions. My point was, why are fuel stations not accepting Applepay for £30 ? |

I was surprised when we were in the US a few years back that quite a few places still used the old fashioned imprint and sign gadgets- the ones where you get a tracing paper like receipt. It wasnt just in the remote areas either, it applied in places where there would certainly have been access to Internet/phone etc . Ive not signed a credit card receipt in the UK in years. |

Applepay is unlike plastic, the owner has to be present during the transaction to use their face or their thumb. The phone has to see your face, or thumb and make the payment within a few seconds - Supposedly much more secure than chip and a pin. I have now swapped most of my out and about spend, to Applepay, so I was just lucky I had my wallet and cards to enable me to pay at all. |

It must do, otherwise other tills wouldn't know to ignore the £30 limit. Besides, Applepay works with some sort of one-time token, so its reputed to be very secure, much more so than a card with or without pin. I have written to Tesco for an explanation. |

My android pay is linked to a debit card so there isn't credit risk. Many older people have limited credit history. I'm not sure of exact details but AIUI bank accounts opened in the last 10-20 years tend to expose data to credit reference agencies by default where as accounts opened before this do not. |

They arent really because there is a limit to how much petrol you can use. Maybe with that track record they find it difficult to persuade the banks to allow the higher limit without the petrol station bearing the risk? There is no risk for the petrol station with an applepay transaction because no stolen iphone can be used to do applepay transactions. |

Pancho submitted this idea :
My android pay is linked to a debit card so there isn't credit risk. I have three cards on the Iphone, credit and 2x debits. I tried the default credit card, which was rejected for Applepay. I am not sure which actual physical card I used to make the payment. So worth trying Applepay again, but selecting a debit card? |

You didn't say why it wasn't accepted, whether the person said that or your phone said that when you tried to make the payment and where you got the story that the problem was because the transaction was over 30uk pounds If the person said that, they may have been confused. Its unlikely that the phone said that, normally with transactions that are higher than the contactless limit it just asks for the card PIN and you enter that on the payment terminal, not on the phone. Its certainly worth trying the other cards, there have been some examples of the card issuer not setting up the card data fields properly so it doesn't work properly contactless or with applepay. |
