A few days ago, late at night, I took out my IC card and held it over the reader to do some shopping.
Oh?
I can’t hear the usual electronic sounds. The card did not respond.
I had no choice but to pay in cash.
At the next store, I held up my IC card again when paying, but the machine did not read it again.
It was late at night, but I stopped by a place like an agency, explained the abnormality of the IC card, and asked him to investigate a little.
Perhaps the deposit balance is gone?
Or was my card banned because of something wrong?
Did a major system failure occur?
I looked it up on Twitter, but I couldn’t find any such information.
After a while, the clerk at the counter came back and told me:
The magnetism of the card has disappeared
Magnetic? Had disappeared? Is it my responsibility?
The person told me to come again tomorrow morning as I will reissue the card.
Until then, my card couldn’t be used.
By the way, what I felt after experiencing cash settlement after a long time is that coins are heavy and banknotes are large.
Such inconvenience may have been the realization of currency value.
Because I think currency value and exchange value are the kind of oral promises and rumors.
I have never signed a contract or granted collateral for their value.
So even if those values suddenly disappear one day, I can’t find a responsible person.
After all, the reissued card seems to have a little stronger magnetism. An electronic sound will be heard vigorously at the time of payment, and my deposit will surely be reduced.
Listening to the electronic sound, I thought: If you forget the feel of money, you’re done.
Black Friday: Save money with a refurbished iPhone, iPad or laptop… Or why not $849 on a 21-inch Apple iMac, instead of $1,099 for a new one? …
That’s all for today’s post. Thank you
