in Credit cards
Hi i am wanting to find out if debit cards are coverd from fraudent use such as online shopping. I have a barclays debit card and somone told me you should not shop online with it because if someone takes your details and steals your card i will not able to get my money back.
This has made me wonder if i should take out a credit card to use online instead. If so would i pass all my saving from the debit card into the credit card?
Thanks in advance.

Didnt understand your question but if you mean can you transfer things that you have already bought onto your credit card, for protection i am afraid the answer is no.make the most of it, we are only here for the weekend.
