(Hat Tip to my friend Bill for the Barclays credit card update and Target gift card update)
Good evening everyone, I have a few random news items to share with you. First off, it looks like Barclays is sending out new Chip and PIN cards to Barclays American Airlines Aviator Red Credit Card holders. When you activate your new credit card online, you are given the option to set up a 4 digit PIN (please don’t pick 1234). This is the first time I have heard of this feature and I wonder if Barclays will send out other replacement credit cards with Chip and PIN technology. To request the new credit card technology, call up Barclays and ask them to send you a new card. If they refuse or tell you to wait patiently, you can tell them your current card is damaged and ask for a replacement card.
