Actually people using mobile phone versions of their bankcard is an irritation for me. They are too slow. When I'm going through the tube station gates, I don't want to be waiting 10 seconds behind someone faffing about with their phone while people bunch up behind me.

It's only a problem if they haven't unlocked their phone before getting to the gate. No different to the clowns who don't have their ticket or card out.

You're right in a way, but I've also observed that it often takes 5 seconds after putting the phone on the reader for it to register, whereas with a physical card it's instant.

Using the tube is my idea of hell, in fact anywhere where I can't see either the sea or mountains is my idea of hell.
 
Our Dyson handheld rechargeable vacuum cleaner. We fell for the Dyson hype and wasted a load of money on something that has its uses - but one of these is not for general household use. A very frustrating and irritating product.
