    Fair play.

    However, seems odd that today during the RBS card issues, the Nationwide 4751 44/45 cards were also affected.....

    How are points 1 and 2 addressed also?
    I spent 25 years in the mobile industry, from 1994 to 2019. Worked for indies as well as the big networks, in their stores also in contact centres. I also hold a degree in telecoms engineering so I like to think I know what I’m talking about 😂
  • I have a 4543 card and it was declined today. The lady on the phone told me it was due to a system problem that they were working to fix

    BUT... nothing on their website, facebook, twitter, G+. How am I meant to know when it is fixed?

    My 4543 card was OK at 14:30 yesterday. When was your card declined?

    Makes you wonder, are there really such things as offline cards these days.

    The point of an offline card is that they continue to function when stuff like this happens.

    None of my cards ever work when there's a technical glitch, and they auth for as little as a lottery ticket. And they're all suppose to be offline cards.

    Well that all depends on what the retailers floor limit is.

    Spend more than the floor limit and its goes for authorisation. Given some retailers have a ZERO floor limit. It makes no diffrence what card you have.

    1st 4 digits means nothing its 5 & 6 that mean more to auth all or not.
    Never ASSUME anything its makes a
