Hi

Can some one with this query ?

I've got an Abbey Visa Electron Card for my bank account and today I received my new replacement Santander card.

However I'm a tad confused as to what type of card I got ? :(

It is now called a Cash card, the numbers are riased, it no longer states Visa or Electron or Debit, and has Cirrus on the back ?

Is it still an Electron card ? Can I pay for goods on line ? Or is it now only a card i can use at an ATM :cry:

If anyone can give more informarion it would be appreciated,

Thanks

Minty :D

    That is just an ATM card. You cannot use it online. Maybe they have sent you the incorrect card.

    It's not a replacement, just 'another' card.
