I see the visa payment system has went Pete tong! Spent over half an hour in Lidl trying to pay for my shopping today. What a joke. There is apparently a europe wide system outage. Loads of conspiracy theories that it's Corbyn, Trump, or Putin :lol: 

its apparently causing chaos at train stations, airports etc! It's all rather interesting. Anyone else been caught up in it?

I used my Visa debit card to pay for a car service and Sainsbury’s today.  ??

Actually it took quite a long time for my £24 payment to clear after I left you at A.C earlier! We were staring at the machine for quite a while, apparently, even debit cards were affected!

Agreed, not a conspiracy.  Think squeezing every last £ of profit for corporate shareholders is the issue.  Systems not up to doing what they are supposed to and insufficient contingency for such a critical system

I may be well wide of the mark, but I suspect foul play. TSB computers went into meltdown, now VISA. If another soon follows, I would be looking at Russia and wondering if they were giving us a taste of chaos. 

If they are and we find out, our capabilities to return thit favour would wreak absolutely chaos on them.
