At least two of my cards have only *ever* been used as contactless on

Good to know TfL are completely ignoring basic banking security. Makes me
glad I've disabled all my contactless cards.

They're not - they worked with the banks to create the PIN-less
protocol, and given the relatively small values, they must have
decided it was a risk worth taking. I'd give them the credit for
introducing something not possible in most of the rest of the world.
