Haven't used it yet... BUT I connected my AMEX to it and it's awesome!
I get a notification every time my card gets used.. And it notifies me almost instantly that there was a transaction.

I'm surprised this wasn't always a feature straight from the credit card companies. Maybe it is but it didn't happen until I triggered the Apple Pay service. Seems like an obvious theft prevention thing.
I was sitting at a bar (as I'm prone to do) last week so I saw the server swipe my card. The notification appeared instantly, like half a second.

i;ve had email notification from AMEX for a long time, not connected to any service other than amex. don't remember all the options but i get alerts for when card is used online and when a purchase exceeds a set threshold. i tried for first time ever to use amex for a cash advance when i was in a pinch.. failed because i didn't know my pin(guess wrong) and got an alert for that as well.

Email, yes. But this is a drop down that appears regardless of what app you're using. Every individual charge.

my 5s is working fine but am eligible for an upgrade to iphone 6 for decent price. anyone upgrade to a 6 and regretting it? not sure i'll like the bigger size, especially since i use a case for protection - making it even larger
At this point I'd wait until the fall to see what they release. Get the 6s version or probably find the current 6 for less.

Whatever they call it, new phone comes out once a year from Apple. I like my six, the screen is great. Got a fairly low profile case for it and had no issues skiing/etc with it.

Love the 6. I upgraded from a 4s, though, which isn't the same as upgrading from a 5s. If I had a 5s, I'd wait for the next phone.
I have a 5S for work. I think it sucks. Much prefer my HTC One mini.
Sorry, I've been overdue for dissing on Apple products. Probably high time I dissed on Subaru as well.
Don't take it personally Edd. :lol:

My wife and I have 4s's. They were our first smartphones. We got them mostly out of laziness - there are too damn many choices out there. I'm hoping next time around to go android. I'm tired of the "big brother" feeling that I get from Apple....
