Dbit vs. Credit. Advantages/Disadvantages?

Question

I have always used my bank check card as a credit card with purchases deducted. Now I have been told better to use along with my pin number.

Answer 1

I am not a big fan of debit cards. There is a greater risk of losses to your account than with credit cards. It is easier in some ways to use the debit card since you just "chip & pin" but putting your check account at greater risk of loss is not worth it in my view.
