I pay all my bills from home with bank transfers. It worries me that I might inadvertantly key in a wrong number and pay the wrong person but dont think its possible.

Usually when you do that, the bank details the person you are trying to pay so you can verify it is the correct person. So if you are trying to pay William of Orange for example, it will come up with that, you hope.

I basically do no bank type stuff on anything that leave the house

contactless cards are a worry - I should really check out phone payments

Thanks for reminding me!

If you have an Android phone then Google Wallet is the way to go.

Much more secure than any debit or credit card.

This is the reason why banks like them so much and they also run the set-up and initial authorisation process.
