@Azro - I consider that statement verging on sacrilegious ;)

Motion carried. There is no such thing as "enough booze!"

Would somebody be able to work out your pin from the sent items in your SMS?
Gordon said on 17th November 2008
@Peter - I'd suspect that you'd need the good sense 1. to delete sensitive sent text messages and then 2. Not then lose your phone.
At worst however I suspect you'd only be vulnerable to the amount of top up you'd added.
That said, let me check...

Gordan your reply is pretty much bang on the money. Other peace of mind factors are: to access your beem account requires both your beem sms password and your phone. Apart from your beem password (which you are encouraged to delete) Nothing else resides on your phone, so if you lose your phone you do not lose your money. All transactions can be viewed from you personal control panel,at www.beemme.co.uk (which again requires your phone and webb password to access.)all bank related data is encrypted, and to send money to people you have to load their name and number into your beem phonebook. Beem is also PCI(payment card industry)compliant. All that said it probably makes good sense to:
1. to delete sensitive sent text messages and then 2. Not then lose your phone.
Have a great week
