Hi Mike,

Could you not just use Apple Pay?  It would cost you nothing, you could do it 
with your phone, and it is accessible.

Just a suggestion.

All the best

Steve

Subject: [access-uk] bpay

Hello folks

I didn't go to Sight Village this year but a sighted friend of mine who went 
there for work mentioned the Barclays Bank 'bpay' thing to me.

I have ordered a wrist band version of this contactless payment device because 
I thought using it might be better than running the risk of dropping and 
possibly losing a card.

Also it might make keeping track of multiple small purchases easier.

But on looking at the app store on Apple I see a number of very negative 
reviews including one titled 'Dangerous Rubbish' which is very damning.

Has anybody anything to say on the subject?

I've managed 9 years of total blindness without ever losing a card so I can 
probably do without if it will avoid complication with the app, problems 
getting support etc.

Mike
