HSBC takes Twitter tongue-lashing over failure to offer Apple Pay

Gavman

So how many tweets exactly did HSBC get? And why should they care?

I'm just confused over why this is an issue, in the grand scheme of things - what is the percentage of people who pay by card vs apple pay?

I'm not saying that NFC solutions built into phones wont become more popular (rightly or wrongly because apple have adopted the technology despite it having existing for a while) but why should any bank not going live with Apple Pay on launch day really care?

Realistically there is no way this will have any meaningful impact on customer base, if your primary basis for which bank to go with is whether they support Apple Pay then fine, but for the majority of people (or thank banks for that matter) I really really don't think it matters one iota

I have to thank you for introducing me to that notalwaysright website - having done my stint in retail I can relate to a lot of those stories!
