I too am the same, I put my cards and stuff is such places that if they try
to get it they get a fist in his face, the only problem is the looks you get
when you reach into obscure places to get your card and such, lol. Anywho..

I just don¹t like it, the problem I have is that I only have a switch, and
cant get a c-card, yet I do a lot of purchasing online. If these pin cards
wont b accepted online (as implied in a previous e-mail im knackered really,
as I  pay for some costs and bills this way.
