    Happened to me a few months back and the bank were great. Asked lots of questions re where I keep my card and who knows the pin etc but they refunded me the same day I reported it.

    Bank are presumably aware that this is an "inside job"

    Maximum contactless is £30. Banks do random pin checks when using contactless, i've had this a few times.
    I've only ever had it once - despite 4 different contactless cards I could use. Anybody know if the checking system is sophisticated enough to detect patterns e.g. spending £29.95 in three or four supermarkets in quick succession? (In my lunchbreak I could get to Tesco, Sainsbury and Waitrose in 15-20 minutes buying champagne or Scotch each time).
    I need to think of something new here...
