Santander cash ISA credit card

Hope someone can assist me here.

I have a cash ISA credit card with Santander.

Does anyone know if I can just use my card to buy items on my card??

Thank you

    There is no such thing as a "cash ISA credit card". What exactly does it say on your card? Can you post a photo or a scan (with account number, name etc obscured)? Did you ask Santander whether you can do what you wish to do with the card?

    Ok my error.
    It's a "Cash card".
    It states that it is not a cheque guarantee or credit card.
    I should really have looked at it.

    I guessing then it can't be used to buy goods?

    That sounds more like it. I believe the cash cards can only be used to withdraw money over the counter or at ATMs.

    Santander tend to use them to identify the account / person when carrying out branch transactions (or at least they used to).

    We had a number of these some years ago which doesnt really work when you have more than one account with the same name each with a seperate cash card.

    I suspect that ours have all expired now without new cards being sent by Santander?
