Personaly, We float the all our purchases on the c-card and pay it off each month,, plus get some $ back annually, I think 3%. As we put everything on the c-card, including utilities, doctors, groceries, travel, & Medications,, it adds up.. AND Some of the bills do not show up for a couple months,, thank you...

Personal opinion,, I know,, we all have one...

My $00.0002

You are right. The only saving grace is that my bank card is their highest type of account and it has the same protections as you premium CC's Most Debits do not have that type of protection....... It does not even say Debit......

I have been really careful because of this issue. Lots of people do not know the difference.
