That's in your own interests.
However, it's tantamount to admitting that the existing PIN code security isn't up to the job.
And, internet orders can be practically anywhere, easy to buy stuff from e.g. a German bike shop, whilst still remaining physically in jolly old blighty. And you don't need a PIN for that, plus you can decline to have the addition password gubbins that many credit cards now have.
willardI'm currently very annoyed with drinks companies telling me that I could enhance my summer if I a) drank their piss-weak rubbish lager/cider from Australia/Belgium* but that I should also b) drink it responsibly.
Drinking crap beer/cider, hell, drinking alcohol full stop, will not enhance my summer. It will make me fat, feel hungover and ruin my fitness.
* All made in west London by the A4. Another lie.
Drink a proper imported beer then, that should prevent all of the above.

Yeah but they won't (or shouldn't) ship to an address other than the card's. So any fraudster would not be able to get hold of your stuff.
Chip and Pin isn't ideal, but it's the best we can do without either loads more technology or much more difficult process.
Mobile phone companies that continually change and relaunch their tarriffs, but don't offer better value.
