The information was enlighiing, but it does not help those that choose to use credit cards or unable to get one. I try not to use them mainly because when it comes to getting your money place back on the card it is a hassel and a long wait. There was no hassel to use it but wat a hassel to get a refund. There should be more of a hassel to use the cards which may cut down on credit card theft.

I recently discovered that my VISA-US BANK debit card was being charged up to 100.00/month for almost a year before I caught it.
Bank could only get the last three months of these back for me they were all fraudulent but policy was limited to three months. I got about 300.00 of about 800.00 back. I still have bank records of all unauthorized charges,would VISA be able to do anything about the rest of them?

When cash is stolen, it is gone forever, unless marked or otherwise identifiable. Same for accepting a counterfeit bill, bye-bye!
While credit costs the merchant more than swiped debit transactions with a PIN, it still costs less than counting cash before each shift for each till, counting cash after each shift for each till, counting the top safe, then counting all the cash again each day for the bank deposit, then getting change for the top safe again! Then, on top of this, time to take to the bank and get change or pay an armored service to do this and schedule this service so that a manager with a key can accomodate this!
Or, accept a debit or credit card and have the money in your bank account as soon as the next working day after settlement. A much smaller price to pay for your merchant!

My Discover card does all that, and with great rewards too.

And don't forget card loyalty! Pick one card and stick to it. Use it for EVERYTHING, groceries, gas, pay the bills, the PAY IT OFF at the end of the month and take the POINTS!!! We do that. We earned an almost free trip to Hawaii. We got FREE first class upgrades on our air fare and out of the 14 nights we were there, we paid for only TWO. And we're talking at the Hyatt and JW Marriott, not Motel 6. Next trip Italy!!!
