Ironically my bank recently had to replace my bank card and the new one
isn't contactless and I wasn't given a choice about that.

No explanation? My recent cards have all been contactless where they
weren't
before.

One bank that isn't so keen these days is HSBC who require a minimum monthly
pay in to an account before they'll issue one. It's a pain if your income is
low or on a different frequency or if it goes into a different account from
the regular payments account. That could be a big obstacle if others are
trying to make contactless essential.
