Stop Using Debit Cards! Why Credit Cards Are Safer and Smarter

from The Money Podcast · host Rob Moore

Rob takes this opportunity to strongly advise against using debit cards, arguing that credit cards are superior for general spending for five key reasons.  For starters, debit card use does not build credit, making credit card use essential for improving your credit score, which is important for future borrowing like mortgages. Furthermore, credit cards offer better protection against fraud, often making the credit card company jointly liable under the Consumer Credit Act. But listen in as Rob reveals the ultimate benefit… BEST MOMENTS "People don't realise that debit cards are only good for one thing." "Number three proves actually that credit cards, if you use them well, are actually safer than debit cards." "You want the banks to take the risk, not you to take the risk."
