Another great idea from this useless Government seriously Flawed like the UK Govt certified encryption used for protecting those Kingston Pen Drives which proved to be seriously Flawed remember?

Is the same UK Govt certified encryption guarding all the Data Basses which this Government are constantly adding our personal information to?

Makes you wonder where all the 'Bank Money' really went does it not?

I thought the whole point of chip and pin was that the banks aimed to offload the responsibility of using the card to the cardholder, leaving them free of responsibility when things went tits up.
ie someone used my card! BANK:Did they how did they get your pin! our system is foolproof and you are responsible for your own shit!!

From the article "...despite not having the relevant PIN number."

The last time I looked, the N in PIN stood for "number".

I accept that the common herd have difficulty with such abstract concepts as redundancy, but such mistatements should be beyond an (alleged) technology journalist.
