Smart Key messing with my credit cards?

[ferrethouse]

Since I put the smart key in my wallet both my bank card and credit card have stopped working (the chip) over the course of 6 months. Coincidence?

I have had mine with my cards since last August and no problems with any of them. You may sound strange to some because our US friends don't have chip cards. They are still old fashion swipe.

No the united states banks have RFID chips in the bank cards, not that it is very secure for the customer.

RFID reader and one guy can walk through a crowd and pick up many bank numbers....

I would rather burn out the rfid chips, spend more money to protect myself seems silly as for the convenience of waving the card rather then swiping it seems a bit of a stretch

I use Apple pay, if a merchandise does not support it., it is to my advantage. Leave them at house andn no worry of being messed up by the key card.
