New The Citibank Club

Wow! I am really surprised that folk are having probs with their cards. I have had no probs with mine whatsoever. Never been declined anywhere.

Just try yours at one of the above and I'm certain you'll have as much luck as the rest of us!

Embarrasment is not a strong enough word.

the only place I have had trouble is the POST OFFICE very embarrassing...but no where else...:D

Well thats another on the list for us not to try!

Awfully bad there is even a couple that don not authorise!

Never had any problems in the few places that I've used mine, including online.

But I hear that the Citibank visa debit card is chip&pin ONLY and cannot be swiped. There is still a few shops that I've used recently that do not have chip&pin and have had to use my electron to save embarisment.

the post office is chip n pin and there are signs up saying use your debit cards here but it was still declined and I had over £300 in the account...I kicked up a stink but nothing happened...just don't use it anymore in there...but not had a single problem anywhere else and I use it online with mastercard secure code as well...no prob's...:D

I read through till page twenty-one then I just couldn't take anymore, enjoyable thread none-the-less just so, so long... By the way I hope your rude and bizarre PM has now been rectified CW..?:p

Anyway, my point being between us we've got five places NOT to use with our Citibank cards, anymore that I/we should all know about?

Kicking up a stink with the assistant won't get you very far as it's not their fault. We had a customer's card declined in our shop today, customer asked me "why?"... all I could say is ask your bank why. The till just says 'Declined - Do not honor', does not give a reason.

it wasn't the assistant I asked to speak to who ever was in charge and said why put up these signs if you don't take this card....:Dthe assistant was rather snotty though as I asked why she just said...we don't take those cards...debit cards...beats me...:D
