New Credit Card can I buy without the card?

Following on from my thread here - https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/3779373=

I have successfully now got the M&S Credit Card I have signed the agreement and sent this back so just awaiting the password and card.

I was hoping to have this by next week but is looking unlikely as I was hoping to pay for the car insurance. Is there anyway I can pay for this without having the card? Is there anything M&S can do for me or is there anything the insurance company can do? (Unlikely)

Any help would be appreciated

Thanks

    No. You will have to wait for the card.

    You would need the card. end date and probably the cvv number very few credit cards I've heard of carry all 3 to avoid fraud

    I doubt the staff members will have access to your CVV number, they may be able to get the card number and expiry date but it would be highly suspicious for someone to request it even after passing security.
