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?

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.

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 .

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

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

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.

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

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?
