Visa and Mastercard have issued new payment cards on a grand scale. They look like credit cards, but they aren’t. And no giro cards either. That causes a lot of frustration.
NThe long-awaited vacation was only a few meters away. The family with the two children had arrived safely on the Greek island. Getting there was tough, but they finally got there. Now all you have to do is wait in line to pick up the rental car. And then off to the sea.
But just before the destination, a nasty surprise awaited the vacationers: no, the family man’s card is not accepted for the deposit, according to the car rental company. After all, this is not a real credit card. The family was puzzled. After all, the Visa logo is emblazoned on the card, and online shopping has also worked without any problems so far. So why not now?
