Debit Only

[tiedeman]

I am curious as to the number of people that use a debit card only, or at least use a debit card most of the time.

Why did you start using it? Do you like it or hate it?

[Steve]

I don't like them because I don't like a card having direct access to a bank account. On the flip side there isn't a bill at the end of the month and it could help the owner control their spending.

It's better than cash and I'M able to track expenses better.

if you loose a reciept, your bank statement has the info already - just remember to have enough cash to cover it.

as far as theft, Your bank can set whatever limit of spending per day - say 100.00
