Is it true that if you enter your bank pin number backwards.....?
I heard that if you give your number backwards (in the case of a robbery) and they enter it it will automatically alert the police, is this true.
I'm in the UK by the way.

False. This is an urban legend that has been circulating for almost 15 years since the idea was first proposed. To date this has not been implemented by any banking system.

no its not true :)
Also some peoples pins may be the same backwards as forwards,
e.g 1001 0110
so it wouldnt work.
or something like that :)

This has been going the rounds for years and its a lot of tosh. If you think seriously about it common sense tells you it couldn't work.

no it will just ask you again for your number you have three chances to get it right before it swallows your card

No, it's just another one of those stories that someone tells and before long everyone believes it.
