A couple of months ago, HSBC Canada upgraded their website so it looked just like the one back in the UK. I facetiously remarked on twitter "I bet they introduce secure keys next". I wasn't a fan of my UK account having one since the first one became intermittently faulty almost instantly and it's a bit of a pain to have to get another one ordered from 4400 miles away. At least over here, we didn't have one.
And then when I was at the bank last Monday seeing the lovely Silvia to invest my savings that I transferred over here ten days ago, she mentioned (when she wasn't being interrupted by instant messenger messages from her boyfriend) that I'd need one, and that as of the 17th of the month I'd have to use one. Lo and behold, the 17th is here, and it needed activating. So now I have two of them. At least if the one on the left fails, I only have to go into town to get another.
