If I remember correctly "chip and PIN day" was around mid February when all cc trancactions were suppposed to be verified by PIN if the cardholder was present. I've paid by cc on maybe 15 occasions since then and on about 8 of these transactions I've been asked to sign, I queried this and generallly got shrugged shoulders or some mumbeled answer that the "banks weren't sorted yet". Its happened mostly in petrol stations but also in B&Q and Smyths to shops.
Whats the point of having a "chip and PIN day" when as far as I can tell there are just as many merchants using the signature method as in the changeover period of years preceeding the "chip and PIN day". Maybe I'm the only one though.
