Comment

I can't see that this will be very successful. In principle it sounds great, until you consider that fact that not everyone has a cam-capable PC, i.e. an older one, also it smacks of 'Big Brother' type antics, which would seem to take away any privacy an individual has. If you want to access your bank account through the present 24-hour banking system in place almost everywhere, why not simply have extra security measures, perhaps extra passwords. The criteria in place at the moment is good, with a lot of questions which are asked randomly before you can access the site. But please, forget about Iris scanning or face recognition or indeed any other form of personal identification. It's all a bit too personal.
Regards
Marie Byrne
