We'll leave it for a day or so and if no new arguments come up it'll be time to close it as it's not progressing anymore.
There's been quite a few thought provoking arguments though from all sides. Dj paddy Ôà----- Original Message ----- From: <jim.taggart@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

I do believe that what the bank is offering is acceptable, because the blind customer is not going to be at any greater risk, or disadvantage, compared to the able-bodied sighted customers. If this case was in court for a DDA judgment, how would you show that the blind customer is at a disadvantage? All you can show is that access to the service is being offered ina different way, but that's not illegal! The bank will simply argue that as they are taking on the extra risk, (as they do for chip and signature customers) there is no extra risk for the blind customers. The bank will point out that they have agreed to cover for fraud. So at end of the day, the blind customer is no worse off comapred to any other customer.
