Things that piss you off Page 1,241

Laughing out loud

Lee, I don't like the card readers either, and I speak as someone who'd had their account hacked before they came out.

Thank you, Nogget!

You can unlock a phone screen in an instant by Swyping a pattern, that's how easy a card reader should be.

I already enter a pin code and password to access online banking and after a few minutes the page "times out" too. My Dad is equally annoyed with the card-reader and his vision isn't what it was, he can barely see the tiny LCD screen and can't type the number in quick enough before it times out. It's awful, awful.

You really suck the fun out of this thread. Angry

TTPYO: billwill :P

Oh, OK. Angry

TTPMO: Peeple who steal money from my bank account due to inadequate security systems, and Banks that then twice lose your highly detailed description of each of the thefts and who need me to phone the Bank's Customer Relations Department to raise hell, before I finally get my money back.

Cool

:D

Both of which can be found by someone monitoring your Wi-Fi.

Your TTPYO should be with that bank's website programming, not the card reader concept itself.

Your dad should report the difficulty to the bank to encourage them to develop a bigger display on the reader and a better website design.

Or buy a big magnifying glass, with a stand :)

These things. I'd rather my security and money be easily compromised rather than having to go through the inconvenience of these things!

My heart sinks when asked for this, mine was driving me mad as the digits were all faded once so I couldn't make them out but I used it the other night and it did behave itself.

Sounds like it needs a new battery.

Just discovered my Nationwide one has a CONTRAST option on the Menu button.
With CONTRAST selected pressing 1 reduces contrast pressing 3 increases it.

What the Hell are these gadgets? Thank the gods I live in a cave and have never seen one.
