Now you have to pay attention to the machine for an extended period of time instead of just waiting for someone to hand you a pen and the receipt. Terrible keypads seem to be the norm so it’s hardly easy to rapidly enter your pin every time.
As far as finding a flat surface goes, do you not have arms? You literally only need to touch the pen on the paper, nobody cares what your signature looks like.
>And we have contactless for small transactions where you might swipe and not sign, which is again faster.
Yes, we have contactless. I don’t see how this is related to chip and pin?
If we’re going to go there then ApplePay with fingerprints is obviously the ultimate solution for these payments, which I think just further supports my firm opinion that I shouldn’t be required to remember PINs for the two places where ApplePay doesn’t work.
