If there's an actual, all-metal card I'd like to get one, too- but the magstrip is on the plastic layer on my card (which is less than 18(...?) months old) and I didn't think they could put one on a metal card.
DP - my "all metal" card wore out like this as well. Asked for a replacement and got a contactless version of the metal card.
Question - do you have to activate the contactless function somehow? Mine didn't work the first (and only) time I tried.
