Even though you'd have exactly the same issue with any low-value offline debit card transactions, whether contactless or Chip & PIN?I have to say the first time I paid contactless I got caught out resulting in £16 charge.. Now I make a mental note when looking at my available balance, does put me off using contactless though.0 -
