with micro chips and entering a pin instead of signing...

have you been "identified for conversion" yet?

Yes, I've seen several so far but most machines didn't have the new technology so you still have to sign.

I would absolutely refuse!

Why are we still using credit cards, coins and paper money? It's 2008, we should be paying for everything with our iPhones.

right, i don't want to carry a tracking chip with me everywhere i go.

how do they decide who will be selected for these microchips?

Royal Bank has automaticly being changing all the business cards in my company as the old cards expire.

"You will be assimilated. Resistance is futile."

a good way to get us to take microchips is by secretly putting it into our food... Attention: REGISTER / LOGIN to view the image!

I mean being able to pay for dinner, pay a parking meter, etc. The technology is there, right?

what about those of us who aren't young impressionable 'victims of marketing' and haven't bought into the apple hype??? its just a phone and besides....


didn't you see what happened in the stock market?? we're heading into the great depression, will be interesting to see how many 'kids' can still afford these things a year from now when they are out of work

yes. They Already do it in Japan.

you have a weird handle!

thank you captain oblivious

I love how poor people accuse others of being victims of marketing. Classic.
That's like fat people accusing thin people of being victims of a healthy lifestyle.

What they really should have is an international database which brings up your i.d. and info upon scanning your fingerprint or the exact patterns of your eye's pupil. This would eliminate the need to carry credit cards, passports or photo i.d. When stopped by a policeman, entering a country or making a credit or debit payment, you just let the computer scan your eye or fingerprint.

That would bring up all pertinent facts, saving everyone honestly and lawfully involved much time, encumbrance and hassle. The immigrations officer or the person brokering the transaction could still give you a print out of the changes they made in your file, so that you have documentary proof of its latest and updated contents.

yup, CIBC sent mine out last month.

hmmm, in reading what you replied to, i'd say they are just more ummmm "mature"

and we all know that the older you are, the more likely you are more financially stable.


don't think your comment holds water

what are the criteria for identification?

Pretty soon the ony way people wil be able to do any transactions is through the mark of the beast. I urge everyone not to accept it even if you get the death penalty because if you accept it you will be in everlasting hell. Watch below!

Wow...you have an Ipod, you must be really really smart. I want to be just like you.

The chips are going in the cards because too many asians and russians are stealing cards and using them fraudulantly and since we cant shoot them all they are putting a chip in the cards with a pin to protect it. I only use my crdit card on the ferry since they are the last place in Canada that still does not allow debit interact transactions

They look like regular cards with a little chip
