  1. The fine print John Fox -- 22/07/08

    Gosh. Just noticed the fine print below the article. Those lawyers are getting really anal these days.

    So it's going to much easier for me to use your stolen credit card whenever I want a DVD, CD, game, anything under the value of $35. Awesome! I thought they were trying to make it harder, not easier :)

    Easier to steal your $35 limit indeed. I'd say about as easy as stealing a $50 note, the only difference is, once you've lost your $50 note, its pretty hard to ring the bank and cancel it.

    1. $35 Limit Anonymous -- 04/08/08

      That's $35 per transaction.

      Now if the card was lost stolen in the stadium, how many times do you think it would get used before someone noticed? A lot more times than you could use a $50 note, I would guess.
