So here you have it, foil for out heads and stainless steel for the rest. Gee I sure hope they come out with a designer series because a wallet like that is not going to cut it for me.

abner Posted March 7, 2012 Report Share Posted March 7, 2012 -Thanks for the video- it was good. A friend put his in the microwave and blew the chip out. When the bank asked him what happened he said it was the machine, They let him keep it- God figure huh? Some guys have all the like- If i did mine it would melt :lol: . -- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Posted March 7, 2012 Report Share Posted March 7, 2012 This has been around for awhile. I have purchased 4 of the Aluma wallets. They are handy but very limited to what you can put in them, more so for men only because women can put all cards in these and put other stuff in their purses. I have about 15 credit cards and not one has yet to have this chip. When I finally get one with it I will no longer use it. Great video and I believe all credit cards issued with this chip should carry a warning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SgtFuryUSCZ Posted March 7, 2012 Report Share Posted March 7, 2012 (edited) ***/// There are several YOUTUBE vids about eradicating these from the card - some are hysterical! A simple hole punch will do the trick, though. 'Ol Sarge's Tip O' The Day: I solved the problem w/ a metal business card case/holder I got at the local staples for almost nuthin'... It holds several cc cards nicely and is slim enough not to be annoying, clicks shut nice and also makes it impossible for people to walk up next to you and scan your card whilst it's on your person. And one more thing: never let someone take your cc card away to be swiped... (like waiters). Never let a cc out of your sight!
