:shock: Ok paranoid lady! Can we change our pin when we visit the hole in the wall? Will this alter the chip and pin number too. Ok i had to ask it! Sorry.
How can they do it tho bit thick here dont they need your card as well as your pin makes me worried now think il use cash might be safer i duno any more :shock:
yeah when you change your pin number in the hole in the wall that number will be the same when you pay using chip and pin – I usually pay by cash anyways as I get lost when paying with cards LOL

Well thats what i thought but the bank told me all they need is the long number across your card (that is your personal number exclusive to you) ans the expiry date! i couldnt believe it
Glad you wont be losing out on any money becky.
Look on the ‘bright’ side – at least they have been caught and won’t be able to do it to anyone else now.

Very true hunni and thanx x :wink:
Just loath theives!Sorry to hear that Becky, I had the same problem with another garage which double swiped my card, before this chip and pin came out. That bill of mine was over to 2k had no problems getting a refund thou.
This is a suprise as the chip and pin suppose to be foolproof and safe, i feel that the Banks has just push more responsibility to the card owner, a forge signature is easy recognize by the fraud department as a fake, but now you have to come up with some explanation on how some one read your mind or where did they watched you put your pin number in.

If banks wanted to make it REALLY safe they would ask for a signature AND a pin number.
Would be a bit of a pain though, but worth it if it cut crime….
i always like to pay using camals
