In Kentucky, we have a new system via child support payments. Instead of paper checks,
we receive a debit card and whenever you get a payment, it's posted to that account and that
card. One would think that it would make things easier, but truth be told, I've had to cancel
and have a new card sent 3 times now.
The debit cards, drafted through Chase Bank, aren't secure. At all. In fact, I was warned by
an Admin at the bank ( after a series of angry conversations) that any purchases I make online
with the card, which they assure you is secure, is simply handing your money away b/c they don't
monitor the card usage and companies that you purchase through can sell your information to other
online companies, so unless you trust that your ISP and internet connection is secure ( no broadband),
you're a potential victim waiting to happen. I've been charged for everything from pies to porn to lingerie.
