New Debit Card, numbers are not raised look fake. Do you have one?

My Citi debit card doesn't have raised numbers

This is what I have seen it used for. I can think of several times when stores' machines or power have gone out, and they have used these. I know you can write it down without the imprint, but it is my understanding that the credit card company will request the imprint if there is ever a dispute to prove the card was there. How do you prove that without an imprint?

Oh, well, doesn't really affect me. But my husband did get a new card a few weeks ago, and it still had raised numbers.

Hah same here...as long as my card doesn't crap out it is good until 2012!

You do three things:

• Get a signature
• Check ID
• Record the three digit security code from the back of the card.
