Comments on: One card-reader fits all for online banking http://www.beatnic.co.uk/2008/05/09/one-card-reader-fits-all-for-online-banking/ Observations and questions from Nic Price Sun, 23 Nov 2008 14:43:55 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.5.1 By: Nic Price http://www.beatnic.co.uk/2008/05/09/one-card-reader-fits-all-for-online-banking/#comment-82480 Nic Price Thu, 03 Jul 2008 08:50:39 +0000 http://www.beatnic.co.uk/?p=679#comment-82480 Bit of a pain really. Given they're all the same bar the branding it's a shame the banks didn't all get together and agree on one company making generically branded readers for all of them, and working with customers to explain we only need one each. Now that would be corporate social responsibility! Bit of a pain really.

To access your online bank account, you have to put the card in the reader and enter your PIN to generate a code which you then enter in to the bank's website. Some banks only make you use the reader if you're transferring money to other people's accounts.
