Anyway, I'll see about trying PIN bypass on a FD terminal next time I visit a store that's EMV enabled. Did the PIN pad just say "Welcome" or "Insert/Swipe Card" or something else?
I think. I've got to read it over in more detail.

I didn't catch what the PIN pad said at the start, but when it got to the PIN entry step, it asked for the PIN, the main terminal said something like "Waiting for PIN entry", the cashier pressed the yellow button on the terminal and it proceeded like a signature transaction.
