I don't understand using a debit card for internet purchases. No real pluses, and the minus of having whatever is in the account lost. Plus no "float".
The other down side of using a debit card is you can NOT dispute a charge like you can on a credit card.
I got hacked on my debit card from a website I bought something from and the 3rd party crook was debiting my account every 20 minutes for $89.67. Called the bank and they said NOPE sorry can't help you, its a debit card, can't dispute the charge. :R
Panicking I Got to the president of the banks office and demanded that he sit and watch my account. That "I" was not using the debit card every 20 minutes for the same amount. They FINALLY took the charges off but not after several hours of arguing with them.
I now know for sure you can't dispute debit card charges like you can with a credit card. :C
