I am looking for the most secure credit card around. I have been a victim of fraud already, and my details are out there.

I am not happy with the 3D security of Verified by Visa or Mastercard, as you can reset the PIN simply by knowing DOB.

I came across emue on the net, and I want one youtube dot com/watch?v=JgDWMh2D0b8

Does anyone know if this system or similar is available in the UK?

I know barclays use PINsenty, but that means you have to carry the device around wiht you all the time.
With emue, the "PINsentry" device is built into the card!

    I especially like this feature:

    Unfortunately its a long way off at present and hasn't been introduced in the UK.

    Sorry to hear about your having fallen victim to the ever present card fraud but for now you'll just have to stick with what you've got :o

  • you can change the passowrd of verified by visa and securecode by knowing the DOB?

    i did not know this

    what a flaw
  • It looks in the UK the credit card with built in computer is being branded as Visa Codesure, and Barclaycard may be the first to issue the device, and could be just a few months away.
