No. 6 posted:Does anyone have a good breakdown of how Apple Pay works? Normally the merchant will have an acquiring bank which takes all their card transactions and then routes them to the issuing bank. Is it the same here? Replace "card" with "single-use or multi-use token" and you have the essence of EMV (and Apple Pay by extension). Molten Llama fucked around with this message at 18:38 on Oct 21, 2014 |

xilni posted:I don't know how this works then since I've been selecting the green Credit button on the Whole Foods POS terminal when I use ApplePay and yet I still can't see any transaction detail besides time and general location. If it's a debit card, pressing Credit just means you don't have to enter your pin number.

Quoting myself because this got lost in the Apple Pay hullabalooToebone posted:I'm leaving my current job, and with it goes my paid company phone. I'd like to get an iPhone, which carrier has the best pricing for someone coming with no contract or trade in? My wife will also be on the plan and getting a new phone, if it works out better than her current prepaid Virgin plan w/ busted Evo 3D. I don't mind paying for the phones upfront if it will save me money in the long haul.

If you're getting a subsidized phone, always get the newest one.

How is apple pay supposed to work at restaurants, where typically they take your card, go in the back to swipe it, and then you add the tip on the receipt?

Well, updated my phone and I still can't use my Bluetooth speaker dock at work. It stopped playing mid-song last week and I haven't been able to pair it again since. It sees it, but when I click on the device's name, it just spins until it gives up about 45 seconds later. Has anyone else gotten an improvement on Bluetooth by chance?

Vinlaen posted:Yeah, I'm confused by this too. Several people have reported Apple Pay working on "all" NFC enabled payment devices, so I'm not sure what "Apple Pay Certified" even means? I've only used NFC once, with the chip in my Amex Blue Cash at my local McDonald's.

So is bluetooth completely hosed on iPhone 6+ or is it just me. My comp and my car see my phone, my phone sees them, they try to connect and my phone says pairing unsuccessful. I'm about to Google Map Steve Job's grave drive over and piss on it.

tuyop posted:They'll bring an NFC terminal or you'll have to use a card with a strip. I'm assuming that bringing a terminal to the table is the future in the US (and the present in Europe/rest of world) since EMV with chipped cards are also coming*, although it seems like the US banks are opting for chip & sign vs chip & PIN which means they could still take your card and bring you the receipt to sign. *Liability for fraud shifts from the banks to retailers in October 2015 if the retailer doesn't have terminals capable of using the EMV chipped cards.

So updating to 8.1 flips the wifi calling setting off. I assume so you can try out Call Handoff since the two features don't work concurrently? Cool, except now wifi calling won't re-enable. Flipping the setting goes to an error page no matter what I try. I was looking forward to having wifi so calls and texts would actually work at the World Series tonight. Nope.

Do you have a T-Mobile prepaid account? If so there's currently an issue going on with wifi calling that started early Monday sometime, before 8.1 even dropped. They're aware of the problem now but no ETA on it getting fixed.

Just used Apple pay at the vending machine at work. Worked great, so I can confirm it works at places not listed as "Apple pay".Molten Llama posted:You can avoid contract(ual obligation)s entirely on literally every major carrier.

Yeah, my post wasn't really that clear I guess. I mean AT&T and Verizon are kind of lovely companies outside of their overall better coverage, so if you live someplace where T-Mobile has good coverage anyway and don't "need" the subsidy you could have gotten from ATT/Verizon, you might want to go with T-Mobile.

I just went to a Chevron, and the NFC worked as far as bringing up passbook/apple pay, but after my fingerprint authorized, the gas terminal asked me to input my zip code, and it rejected the transaction twice. I'm thinking maybe it's because the card I'm using is a debit card perhaps? Or do I need to add my zip code to passbook somehow? I already have my address added, so I'm not sure what's up.

carry on then posted:I wonder how much time per day they spend looking up articles and videos about a phone they don't like so they can make sure everyone knows what their opinion of the phone is. Android fanboyism is pretty strange, is it because there's something really nice about feeling like you're throwing your lot in with the underdog? Is it backlash to years of rabid Apple fanboyism that I've never seen before? Is it class consciousness? Though I guess nearly every android user is pretty ambivalent about the whole thing and just doesn't want to spend money on hardware. Ditto for most iOS users except they don't care about dropping a few hundred bucks when they renew their contract.

From what I can tell, it's partly a view that Apple and their users are smug hipsters, but a bunch of it appears to come from the idea that Android is for Smart People who know that Android is the platform for Real Work and iOS is a walled garden for children and old people, and a feeling that they need to make sure everyone knows that they are a Smart Person.
