No a phone is to <deleted> small.

Do bank staff and most office workers, do there work on a smart phone.

 

Maybe not their work, but they do spend most of their working time looking at one.

I wonder what the bank does if people answer the questions wrong. Maybe: We just blocked your account. You are too stupid to use this app.

If the questions are answered incorrectly, the correct answers and a brief explanation are provided, no one's account is blocked.  Try it next time and see for yourself.

All the bank staff I have talked to and interacted with use their smart phones for a part of their work

Yes I have a smart phone?

 

Guess what I use it for? 

 

I use it for its main purpose, which is making phone calls,

 

I use my pc for most other things such as a calculator, storing information, logging forex rates, transferring banking funds, reading books, saving files, logging photos, printing documents, downloading and printing all my visa stuff including photos, reading Google Earth, playing games, editing thousands of Ebooks, writing my life story, stuff like that.

 

So why would I even bother to use a mobile phone with a small 6 inch screen to do stuff like that when I can use a pc with 1 tB internal storage and 2 external hard drives of with 1 tB and 4 tB of extra storage space, plus a 23 inch screen to view it on?

 

The best thing about my smart phone is the camera, and I dump all the photos onto my pc at the end of the day anyway.

 

Can you do all that on your smartphone?

If you are away from the house and need to make a very urgent money transfer, maybe a medical emergency, how will you do it? you can't carry around your pc

Getting eyes tested , will not make a 6 x 3 screen bigger.

or glasses for that matter.

But I'm sure David Copperfield could do it.

As I understand that the poster you reply to is in his fifties, that mean you were using PC's early 1970's? Shows actually how smart you aren't

Yes of course they do, but its mostly for playing on face book and line in office hours.

Can't see any day soon,  when that big old monitor, keyboard and mouse, all connected to that office server is gone, from that desk

in a bank.

but maybe one day . :coffee1:

 Your right.

I'm sorry I thought he was a juvenile.

 

Ps When were computers invented, ?

Now if you had said the internet, i would think you were smart then. :cheesy:

You're being left behind already, most people scan to pay using their phone at least some of the time, you no chance

Unlikely.

Don't  use a phone for that, I make phone calls with it.

and take selfies in soi 6 some afternoons with the ladies  upstairs.

also some bank code text messages.

Had the same experience yesterday.

One would think after practice people who use phones to pay would get faster at it, do smartphones emit radiation that causes memory loss?

It is not a "slider", just click on it...as the instruction "Click and scroll" says! So 'kin hard to work out?  

The instructions are somewhat confusing.

 

What the OP needs to do is first click on the oscillating button.

 

Then slide to all the way to the bottom of the Terms and Conditions text.

 

Then check the "I agree etc."

 

Perhaps a comma between Click and Scroll would help.

Older are resistant to stupid changes which may compromise their financial security, and are slower than the systems they replace.

Use the app, move with the times

DON'T   

  Apps are not safe  They are LIES  they are just easier for the banks , Stay with the pc/laptop  transfer with  an  OTP, Safe as a house .

Do not Believe what they say that an App is safe IT'S NOT.     

Only With an a OTP  to your Phone is Safe.

Apps on a Phone are left open sometimes , Phone get lost /stolen  ,,,, Money Gone.

It's pretty hard to lose PC/Laptop and Phone at the same time at the same place  . So Much Safer.

You really do need to catch up, banking apps are generally far more secure than internet banking on your PC.

Nice try but no cigar.

 

Firstly i don't go that far from home.

 

Secondly the last 2 times I went to the hospital after I blacked out, I was in the hospital for 2 to 3 days and my wife came every day. She brought me food and she also paid the bill, so there is and never has been an urgent transfer of money.

 

Instead of wasting your time and mine with hypothetical questions, why don't answer the questions that I put to you?

 

If you would like another question, try this one.

 

How many very urgent money transfers, maybe a medical emergency, have you made in the last 12 months?
