Don't worry, contactless throws all of that out the window. It's like WPS for routers. Anyone got your card? They can make purchases and cashback till your account is out of cash or they get really tired.
Yeah, there can be a limit on the number of transactions, but my bank and several others just don't care, there's only a limit on a single transaction, currently £30. Genius, just genius.
That's for personal cards, though. Always use a prepaid card when paying for anything, anywhere.
That is just not true - you will be asked for a pin if you use contactless multiple times in succession, and you can't do cashback with contactless at all. I also live in UK.
How many times? I did 5 consecutive purchases in a day with TSB, no PIN requirement. Contactless VISA allows for cashback. Barclays, 3 consecutive purchases, haven't tried cashback.
