dplusd Posted March 28, 2017 #2 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Credit card. Many reports of problems using debit cards, related to putting multiple holds on the account that do not fall off for extended periods of time (depends on issuing bank policies).

Clarea Posted March 28, 2017 #5 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Credit card. Never use a debit card except to get cash from an ATM when we are out of the country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bouhunter Posted March 28, 2017 #6 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Credit card. Never use a debit card except to get cash from an ATM when we are out of the country. +1. There is no good reason to use a debit card for anything but an ATM. And good reasons not to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted March 28, 2017 #7 Share Posted March 28, 2017 +1. There is no good reason to use a debit card for anything but an ATM. And good reasons not to. Plus, the account with the debit card is at a different bank than our regular bank with very limited funds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomatecerise Posted March 28, 2017 #11 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Sister's credit card for rewards ;-) We link her card to Seapass before departure and I repay her at return Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigque Posted March 28, 2017 #12 Share Posted March 28, 2017 I have used a debit card on every cruise I have been on from the very first one and have never had a problem. Now one thing I do however is keep a 2nd checking account separate from my regular checking account that I use just for vacations and cruises. I do that so that if there is ever any problems it will not affect my regular checking account that I use for bills and things. :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fouremco Posted March 28, 2017 #13 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Cash account on our March 12 cruise, but credit card for all previous cruises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pipo Posted March 28, 2017 #14 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Credit, all the way. Credit cards have a faster refunding process than debit, check or expense cards. Plus, you still have the advantage or option of not losing money during the settlement of a dispute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb at sea Posted March 28, 2017 #15 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Never a debit card....if you want to go that route, just bring cash and use it. Debit cards incur "holds" on your funds....cash accounts do not. Nor do credit cards....although they do show "pending charges"....but they drop off when the actual charge goes through.

Rare LMaxwell Posted March 28, 2017 #17 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Do you prefer your Debit or Credit Card. Thanks :) I never use a debit card (my money). I use a credit card (banks money). No need for the risk if compromised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
