Apparently some banks are suggesting to clients to think about chip implants to do banking with instead of pins etc.
Suncorp apparently have sent out an email sugesting it? Can anyone confirm (I don't bank with them) ? We move to a new exciting chapter in banking.... ![]()

Would the microchips conflict with the 5G vaccine ones, or would users suddenly have access to Bill Gates’ fortune?
What about personal choice where they were implanted? |

I wonder if the arm with the chip in it has to be connected to a body? Muggers delight? ![]()

I'm old enough to remember when ATM's first came out and the banking unions were totally against it saying it would cost jobs. They had public support until the banks came out and said but it will be cheaper for the public, lower costs to the banks meant better returns to the public. Look how that worked out, fees on fees regardless, savings to business are never passed on. A couple of bills I pay online actually charge me 95cents to process, my option is to pay in person at the one or two physical offices they have and I can pay with EFTPOS so I see no difference to an online transfer. I'm so worn down I don't even argue anymore

I reckon it’s a fantastic idea.. Young and gullible?? Be a blessing for us oldies, not having to remember the multitude of PINs that modern technology has thrown up? https://www.bbc.com/news/business-61008730.amp

Funeral home could scan me hand on the slab, so I don’t have to worry about a pre-paid funeral?

Banks are a bit late to the game...
![]() https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/world-...r-card-5908668 Haven't heard of it from the banks, but not surprised. Chip implants will just save banks from having to invest in real biometrics.
