Portas towns and contactless card payments
One year on from the launch of the Portas towns, Aasmah Mir examines how vacancy rates have changed.
There are now thirty-four million contactless payment cards in the UK. There's probably one in your wallet or purse. We examine whether people are using them and assess the security risks. There's the second part of our series looking at the Portas towns - today we're concentrating on shop vacancy rates. We have exclusive access to the Financial Ombudsman as we look at the scale of the PPI industry. Plus, the story of the woman who lost 拢64 000 to scammers claiming to be FBI agents.
