[Nfbmo] Question about debit cards

[DanFlasar at aol.com]

Gary,
   Although debit cards are associated with the major card  companies - 
VISA and MasterCard, the protections depend on the terms of your  contract.  If 
you use a credit card, you generally have the right to  protest charges and 
hence postpone or eliminate a charge, some offer a kind of  insurance for 
products, 224- hour suppport and so on.  Debit cards don't  offer those 
advantages, and if you use your debit card as a credit card, you may  not have 
the services listed above - you have to check with the card  issuer.

Hi Bryan. I  have heard there are better protections for credit than debit
cards. Do you  know what they are?

Warmly,

Gary

hi,

i have a credit card  instead of a debit card.
i feel there is better protection financially if  the card is lost or stolen
and the clerk helps you sign at a certain spot  or sometimes a signature
isn't even required.

Hi Kyle.  I quietly  tell the clerk operating the register what it is.  I
also mention how  helpful it would be if the store had a tactile pad, so I
could enter the  number myself.

Warmly,

Gary

Now  that I'm 18 and moving off to college, I got a debit card.   However,
when me and my mom were shopping one time, and I paid for the  purchase with
my card, I was unable to type in the pin number because I  couldn't see it.
My mom just typed it in, but what am I to do if I am  alone.  Has anyone out
there had to deal with this kind of situation?  And if so how did you remity
it?
