So we know that the Thames on the front is glow in the dark. But is the little âtailâ on the back also glowy?
Also the little wraparound is a cute touch but it now bothers me that the rest of the river doesnât continue on the back when it shouldâŠ
So I just tried my card out using chip and pin at Tesco and the card reader said there was no chip and failed to read the card.
Contactless with the card worked fine but not the chip. It could have been Tesco but I do wonder if itâs a duff card. I will need to try somewhere else to confirm.
Just tried it and the back doesnât glow on mine.
Iâd try it again before asking for a replacement.
Contactless works with the chip so itâs not completed dead.
I plan to at a different store. I was just reporting it.
I suppose it would be more expensive to make both slices of âbreadâ in the card sandwich glow/not glow in all the right places.
It (tail on the back) does glow - but you need to expose it to a lot of natural light first and because it isnât a large area, it doesnât seem to glow unless you look carefully.
Weird, I tested it with a UV torch that works perfectly for the front of the card, mine definitely doesnât glow on the back.
When you said the other day about âcharging itâ I thought that was a superb wind up, didnât realise it was true!!
I learned this when I got the glow in the dark cover for my dogâs fitness tracker.
It glows even in the daytime when she comes indoors after being outside. The more light itâs been exposed to before going in the dark, the more it glows, and for longer.
I donât fully understand why or how it works that way. Never researched it. But that seems to be how glow in the dark stuff works.
Edit: and now I know!
Did you guys never have wrist watches with glow-in-the-dark hands? How young are you?
I wish I still had my Pop Swatch
I am 33 this year and have many watches with lume, my favourite being my Tudor BB58 Blue. The back of my Flex card still doesnât glow in the dark though.
Left a UV torch on the back for 20 minutes now and it still doesnât glow at all while the front glows within seconds.
Canât wait for these!!! Iâll grab one as soon as possible!
Sharing this here too
Havenât used the card at point of sale yet, just online. However, have used it more than I have in the past to use the âpay in full on next payment dateâ option.
This confirms to me that having to select a plan every time I use the card is a pain.
Iâll keep testing the physical card and will be using it for Chip and PIN and contactless this weekend, and Iâll give feedback.
But in order to use this longer term as my âeverydayâ card Iâd definitely want to be able to set a default of âpay in fullâ with the option to edit the plan, rather than having to go onto the app to select a plan every time.
