    Rather craftily there is no mention of it being only for iphone users until you've given them a name and email address.

    Right back in Feb, the website said it was for self-employed iPhone users only.

    Yep, as is my colleague's. He got his email late on Friday.

    It certainly doesn't look like an alphabetical list. Maybe something to do with when you signed up and so on. I should o!!!! myself lucky that I am due top get it around that date as others are much later than me.

    I think the date may be based on when you registered your card details. I was one of the first to sign up on the first day of release but have not even had an email with a date yet - however, I didn't register a card until late March when they sent me a reminder email.

    Those of you that haven't had an update email from Curve to date, why not get in touch via their support@ email address?

    They were very quick to reply when I got in touch to ask something.

    I never got an email with an estimated dispatch date, but I did get a push notification from Amex this afternoon, notifying me of a £35 charge from 'WIRECARD'. Sure enough, email in my inbox saying the card was on its way...looking forward to trying it out.
  • I saw a new "Curve Card" advertised and reviewed.

    From what I gather, for £35 you get a pre paid Mastercard connected to your other credit cards which you then use and can select (from an app) which of your original cards is charged.

    The benefits are that you can use your AMEX card anywhere now (and hopefully get the cashback),

    My question is this: As it is a pre paid card, is it still subject to the credit card fee you get charged when using a credit card in some places (like paying for road tax online, for example), or are you not charged at all, as if you had used your debit card?

    For the one off fee I am tempted if it means I can use AMEX anywhere, as I can then get rid of my standard Credit Card that pays less in cash back, and also use it to pay for things like insurance without the AMEX fee (obviously paying off the balance at the end of the month and taking the cash back).

    Any other thought on it?


    Completely unreleated but I did like the user name, we often call outselfs unclear engineers :beer:
