Re: The Barclays and other non-Lloyds/TSB Bank thread

The whole concept of that seemed so bonkers I can barely believe they invented it, but then again I guess we're talking about a country that didn't go in for PIN cards in a big way until about 2015. I've been to the USA a few times and it was staggering that they still had swipe and sign in the 201...

Re: The Barclays and other non-Lloyds/TSB Bank thread

Out of interest, does Samsung Pay still have that feature that mimics magnetic swipes. I know it was touted when they launched it but I don't think it was ever used in the UK, only the US.

Re: Pres Cafe Watch News and Information Board

And in classic TVF style, a few posts get removed for being full to the brim of unnecessary speculation and suddenly you’ve got posters proclaiming the death of the forum because they’re not allowed to do whatever they want. Some things never change… Newsroom seems still bitter about his ban from t...

I don't th...

Re: The New Real Thing

I find it interesting how conservative the cocacola freestyle machines in the UK are compared to the absurd number of combinations in other countries. Couple of related points - coca cola are bringing out a smaller freestyle machine, comparable to the pepsi/tango ones you see in subway but an inter...
