    No thats the old card. Electron cards are being phased out.

    can you use the new card just like a visa card? I want to do food shopping online but Tesco don't take Solo but they do take Visa.

    What's the betting if I 'snapped' my card, they would send me a replacement electron one?! :rolleyes:

    You could try that or just wait a couple of weeks until its June and see. If you try it let me know and I'll see what condition my own card is in. Also let me know if it is the nice blue card or the sickly green one that I've got.

    I still have a stack of shiny cards unfortunately none of them are in working order anymore - just a little momento.

    My new one is due in July, so it might well be worth a little accident - will let you know if I'm unlucky ;)
