How do you feel about those key chain credit cards?

my new visa came with a "mini card" for the key chain.. do people really use this?
I would be a little scared to have it on my key chain

Re: How do you feel about those key chain credit cards?

I never heard of that but I am not liking it!

Re: How do you feel about those key chain credit cards?

I would never use it. I am too clumsy and would loose my keys the minute I attached it to my key chain!

Re: How do you feel about those key chain credit cards?

I would get rid of it. My husband misplaces his credit cards and keys all the time I cant imagine a credit card on the keys.

Discover card gives them out and I shred them up!! there is NO way I am carrying my CC on a key chain!!

A friend of mine got her key chain gas card switched on her when she put her keys down and didnt realize for 3 months that someone was using it and charged almost 400 dollars on it---she just thought the magnetic strip de-activiated----dont use them, they are too easy to steal, loose, and swap with invalid ones.

Re: How do you feel about those key chain credit cards?

I am sorry, but this is the dumbest invention that the CC company made.. this increase the chance of lost/stolen credit cards, and the CC companies has to pick up the tab on those unauthorized use.



ETA: it's going into the shredder.

it just seems too easy to lose. I do however, LOVE the "blink" and "fastpay" features where you don't have to swipe or sign.

Re: How do you feel about those key chain credit cards?

I would not put them on my keychain and will not use them either.
I'd shred them....

Re: How do you feel about those key chain credit cards?

Yeah I dont dig it. I mean the convenience is one thing, but I don't feel too secure.

I have the key fob discount cards to like Shop Rite & Petsmart..yeah I lose them all the time

Re: How do you feel about those key chain credit cards?

I would shred it too!!

Re: How do you feel about those key chain credit cards?

I haven't heard of that! I would shred it too!

Re: How do you feel about those key chain credit cards?

I wouldnt use it...

Re: How do you feel about those key chain credit cards?

I have one and I LOVE it. It is so handy. I dont leave my keys unattended of course. I don't have to carry my wallet with me all the time. Its great!

Re: How do you feel about those key chain credit cards?

I call it lazy and if you do so, how are they gonna verify your signtature? or photo (for those who have photos on there id)

Re: How do you feel about those key chain credit cards?

NO way would I use them. I cut them up and throw them away when ever I get them.

Re: How do you feel about those key chain credit cards?

Isn't it just the same as the fast pass gas cards? I have never liked that - too easy for criminals. Not like they EVER check signatures on regular cards almost anywhere anymore.

Re: How do you feel about those key chain credit cards?

Definitely would shred it. It's just too easy to lose your keys.

I hate them - and would never use one. Just too much potential for problems.
