Commbank American Express apparently now with Chip & Contactless!

"Received in the mail a replacement Amex card from CBA this evening which has a chip (is it called EMV?) and Contactless...."

As per a post on Whirlpool from Thursday (3rd July)

The Mrs tried using her new contactless enabled CBA Amex on Thursday or Friday in a McDonald's and the transaction went through smoothly as she reported.

I received a replacement card about 1-2 weeks ago and it was the same as the old ones. Might ring up for yet another one since it's completely useless where I am, the few places that accept Amex have to go through ID checks without the chip.

Just ordered my Amex replacement today. According to the "Credit Cards Specialist" they'll be progressively rolled out to all customers over the next 3 months.

Just received replacement Gold (Amex/Visa) and White (Amex/MC) cards for me and secondary. Funnily enough my Diamond cards are due to expire end of next month, haven't received those ones yet.
