    Lloyds have said the black horse card design will not be available contactless until Jan 2013 :-(

    Damn I phoned up Lloyds this morning telling them that my chip is scratched and it doesn't work in chip & pin and they said they'll send a new one which means my new card might not be contactless then.

    Not sure why I am bothered though as only ever used contactless at mcdonalds.

    Last time I tried to use my contactless card at McDonalds, I got a stare like a cow looks at an oncoming train!

    It seems like they are just issuing contactless cards on the 2012 design.

    Why say you'd lose the card that means new pin members etc just say the chip is scratched and it doesn't work in the chip & pin.
