"We’re currently working our way through long lists to get Supercards out to as many people as possible. Unfortunately this means that we aren’t able to get a card to you right now, but we will keep in touch about Supercard and to let you know when cards come available."
So I'm responsible for fraud? Or just misuse caused by me?
So someone steals my magstripe info and signs a slip Mr M. Mouse and I'm liable?
So I get mugged while abroad, and I'm liable for all transactions until such time as I wake up in hospital and manage to call a UK number (that I won't remember) and quote my 9 digit account number (that I won't remember)? Or will this backdate, so £50 in total?
So if I have a problem I have no recourse to the UK FOS, I have to rely on the regulator in Gibraltar?
Essentially by having this card you no longer have Section 75 (etc) protection because your card company is just paying a debit to Supercard, and then you're relying on the flimsier protection of Supercard. It's a licence for Supercard to take out money from your credit card with much less protection than you'd normally get when travelling abroad.
just had a go and cant even get on the website to start the registration

12.3 suggests you are not liable.

It supports the case for sticking with a specific UK card.
