Title: Contactless payment
Post by: Apostrophe Spacemonkey on October 07, 2013, 12:59:49 pm
is awesome.

I got my visa debit card from ANZ and now I'm paying for stuff like a boss.


Petrol stations, supermarkets, cafes, it's great. No longer are precious seconds of my life wasted by punching in my pin number.

Are you referring to NFC?

I have Pay Wave on my card and I don't like it. Reason is I have my everyday account on the same card. I got to pay via Eftpos and TOO LATE SHITBIRD, I'VE ALREADY TICKED THAT PURCHASE UP ON CREDIT, HAHAHA FUCKHOLE.

I have separate cards for credit and debit accounts.

I can see how your situation would be annoying, you should go to your bank and fling poo at them until they fix it.

I got my ANZ Visa Debit card the other day (replaced my National Bank card without even asking/telling me :( ) so I went to Countdown and the damn thing doesn't work there. The useless cunts have decided to limit their systems to only work with Visa credit cards and block debit cards in order to promote their One Card visa. So fuck them.

Luckily it works at Henry's so alcohol can get in my system faster.

I was annoyed they tied it to my main bank account so now some l33t haxxorz can steal my pay every month.

Mine doesnt work at Countdown.

I've figured that out after about two dozen times of standing there holding my card over the machine and nothing happening, feeling like a knob.

I like paying for things on credit. It means I can have my money chilling in my account until the end of each month. Plus I get rewards points for buying things with my credit card, free shit rocks.

It's a nice idea until someone walks off with your card.

I believe Visa have an agreement that if your card has been shown to go 'walkies', they'll reverse the payments.

That's the agreement they have with McDonalds as you don't have to enter your pin in the terminals when you use a Visa chip card.

There is this.

And other ways to jack coin from someones card using a cellphone with NFC and software on steroids.

I still do it, just so i don't need to awkwardly hold my wallet waiting for the guy/machine to give me my credit card back.

Correct, you're covered for any fraud.

Countdown Supermarkets Hi Alex, thanks for your post. We’re currently can only accept PayWave and PayPass-enabled cards for Visa and Mastercard credit card transactions with no PIN up to $80. We don’t currently accept contactless debit card transactions, so if you have a debit card, you can insert or swipe your debit card as usual.

Sometimes I feel like an idiot, even when making a smart ass comment.

Other times, I'm asleep.

It's probably because I have admin privileges on GetSome Team fortress 2 servers.

Check it. <3
