A major gripe is taxis – you need to have up to 50 quid in cash when you get in the car. No wonder Uber is killing them.[/quotE]
Plenty of cabs take cards now, particularly in London, I agree though, I rarely use cash for anything.
I’m certainly sufficiently intrigued by this to have signed up today, although I’ve not gone to any participating shops to actually try it.
Mike – your frothing is rather odd. FWIW someone did hack the fingerprint scanner on an iPhone 5S by taking a latex ‘copy’ of a finger print lifted from a glass. To say its down to nothing more than luck seems really stupid. I’m also intrigued by his easy peasy software hack. No one is claiming its infallible, but I’d say it’s a lot more secure than you seem to think.
