I have put my card in my safe

Im not saying it isnt a handy way to pay, I use mine all the time on the tube saves the hassle of having to buy an Oyster card and top it up, its just not that secure

Well, as long as the policy is you get that money back then it's the bank's loss if they wish to keep the feature.

For all I knew, there could've been Ł5 on it

I used to use it but decided not to because I cannot be trusted when there’s alcohol in my system

But when you're intoxicated how do you not?

Is that the main thing that's dodgy about spending someone else's money

Of course not- I know full well what's dodgy about using someone else's card. My post was just a tongue in cheek response to hijaxers story about his/her friends friend dropping her card and some kid finding it, spending it on sweets, and my similar situation to finding a card and being tempted to use it. Only major difference is I didn't use their card in the end

I'm fully aware of the consequences of using someone else's card without their permission. I don't know why you're taking my post so seriously
