this is an awesome point I didn't even consider. I use AndroidLost and am able to remote wipe my phone at anytime from a browser. Now that I think about it, I would much rather be able to use my phone for payments with this ability, than to carry a physical card and risk losing it or leaving it somewhere. Yes I make backups of my phone using custom recovery ( clockworkMod Recovery).
- ma2rten 15y agoYou know you have your credit card blocked with one phone call, right? And that those not relay on it being on and having internet connection.
- angryasian 15y agowhy even bother thats the point. With a regular credit card, you'll have to request a new card and number, wait for it in the mail, and now change all your accounts that are associated with it. With my phone, remotely wipe my sd card / lock out my phone. Track it down, and restore. Much easier. I have missplaced my credit card before, and the loss of my phone is more noticeable and quicker in general than my credit card that I didn't realize was missing till the next time I went to use it.
- pavel_lishin 15y agoI have three credit cards, and two gift cards in there. That's a minimum of three calls, the numbers for which I have to find and call and sit through what is probably an automated system. Sure, it's a first world problem. But that's where I live, and those are the problems I'd like solved.
