Didn't ask for, but got one anyway. Anyone used one yet?

Barclay's by any chance?

I don't think the bank I am with has gone contactless yet.

Countless Polish and Russian guys have but you are gonna struggle to track them down to ask them about it though

Other than McDonalds I've yet to see any shops that accept payment using NFC

I use mine at McD's and its great. Big Mac, Beep.

I dont have to touch anything that the public have touched.

Do you not even have to enter a PIN or anything? Massive security risk, for that reason I am out.

Every few transactions, then you need to enter a PIN, and there is a limit of transaction size.

Spain has just introduced contactless ATMs, where you still have to enter the PIN.
