    While that sucks, that is why you don't ever shop on networks that are not secure or give out your debit card info to a site.

    If you must shop online, either use a real credit card or use paypal or something.

    Your lucky the bank is refunding your money.. they generally don't for debit cards.


    Just a heads up. You should always use your debit card as a credit card. That way you dont have to reveal your pin and you have all the protection of a credit card.

    If someone gets the pin they can wipe your entire bank account out & you are SOL.

    This is only true if your bank is absolutely terrible. Mine flags suspicious debit card transactions and calls me before they approve them. They also have a zero liability policy for fraudulent debit or credit purchases. I've had both happen, and they have been fantastic about making it right.

    I always use mine as a credit card. Even on Walmart.com. It was just since my checking and savings were linked, they just kept clicking "buy" until the money ran out.
