Life's Like That : Cards Cards Cards

My wallet is thick. No, it's not full with ringgit notes, but cards. Credit cards, bank cards, breakdown service card, medical cards, identity card, loyalty cards, etc. Those cards from banks are the main culprit. Gheez, can't they form a consortium to look into ways to consolidate all this cards into one card, instead of making consumers carrying so many cards where ever they go? It will be much more convenient for us as consumer. Imagine filling up petrol with just one card, swipe at the terminal, choose which bank to charge the purchase, then fill up. Loyalty points updated. Same goes when you pay at shopping centre, just one card, swipe select the merchant bank and points updated.

Karen - huh? PAS cannot meh?

TOTORO - fraud? perhaps the sales terminal shld have thumb print recognition feature. Participating bank shld share the cost. Customer service, fees, points remain status quo. Hmmmm, will tat work ah?

DIN - Err, it has TnGo, ATM MEPS Cash, 64K chip ler. I think soon they gonna include our medical data too. Doc will no more keeping patient log. Just slot MyKad into the terminal, wa laaa! History revealed. Ya, so tat makes the card your life, so dont loose it.

MGS - Same watttt, having all sort of cards & monies stuffed into wallet. Wallet gone, all gone.
