Wondering how much of problem for me this is going to be (& many others),
somewhat annoyed, since I don't have a mobile*, & certainly won't be forced into having one by 'regulations'.
Thinking of PayPal & Amazon particularly.
I think the original introduction date was September this year,
but there's been a recent extended roll-out period announced, to smooth the un-preparedness (/potential havoc)
Obviously there's Zillions of links online about this,
but I thought if I 'complained' on Egosoft's site that they could do something about it

Was hoping the banks could offer some sensible alternative before it goes live :
I believe TSB & Lloyds will give security codes by landline,
and there's the 'card reader' gizmo which e.g. Barclays can send the authentication code to.
But generally I think if you're asked for 'strong customer authentication' when buying something online,
you knackered if you haven't got a mobile registered (or don't have signal in your current area / at that moment).
Anyone else here likely to become an 'online second class citizen' because they don't own a mobile (or have no signal) ?
