>do they still copy the details with a carbon machine?
Lol. No.
I have more than 20 American credit cards plus a handful of debit cards. The vast majority of can't be copied with those old carbon machines - they are not embossed.
The last time I've seen anyone use those old carbon machines was to pay for parasailing in the Caribbean in 2009.
>here they'll just ask you to put it in the chip&pin machine and authorise the deposit
