Debit Cards are better, cause your spending your own money, with Credit Cards it's not your money till you pay it back and if you don't due it soon enough then you got interest to pay. Plus if your not too care full you could go into dome nasty debt with Credit Cards and paying hundreds more back on interest then you wanted or needed too. |

Debit, as good as cash, can be used like a credit card, no interest, no bill in 30 days, and much safer if someone decides they would like to have it more than you. I rarely carry cash. |

debit cards are better to use at the end of the month you don't have to pay a bill and all the interest |

I prefer to use a debit card. It easier than carrying cash around because I lose cash. My older mother on the other hand prefers cash. I still carry cash because some stores do not take cards yet.
You do have some protection with a debit card. If the debit card has a Visa or MasterCard symbol on it. You are also protected by their zero liability policy. |

Debit cards are much easier to handle. You can only spend what's there, leaving you worry free about having to pay it back in the future. Some cards have features that send a percentage to a savings account, which make me feel like I'm making some effort towards putting away money.
The other benefit of debit cards comes when needing a credit card number, especially for things on the internet or buying over the phone. Some companies, such as insurance or on-line rental business, require you to have a credit card number. The debit card has this feature, but automaticly takes out the payments from your account, rather than billing you and having you handle the payment.
Credit cards are not free money, which is what some people consider them as. You have to repay not only what you spend, but also the interest that accumulates until you do pay it off. |

I have no problem with neither of them,,, though I have friends who said the debit card completely screws up their checkbook for they get confused. Well I highly DOUBT the debit card is screwing up and that the fault lies with the people.
I am happy with my credit card now, but I did have a "Capital One" credit card and had to tell them where to get off ...Let me advise you against EVER getting a "Capital One" card ! Do not do business with them or any subsidiary of them... you will have nothing but problems !
Good Luck ! : ) |

Credit Card...I forget sometimes to make a note of what I used the debit card for so I lose track..with a credit card I get a monthly statement so I know exactly what's what. |

Either way. You can use most debit cards to make credit purchases, you'll just have to sign the reciept instead of entering a pin. But I think it really depends on the person. I prefer using credit cards, then I just pay my bill when it comes every month. |

I generally make purchases on my credit card. That way, I only have one checking account withdrawal a month. A credit card makes it easier for me to keep track of my budget and bank accounts (I have multiple bank accounts so its more complicated than it needs to be). |

I'd say probably Debit. U can spend the money you have as opposed to the money you don't. Or just use cash and don't worry about any cards, but that's last case scenario. |

they are two diff types for a reason. i think of it as you can spend money with debit and save money with credit(if you set yourself up right). by opening a credit card you can start to build credit if you stay on top of your bills. what i do is set up for automatic bill payment. this will take out money from your banking account each month on a specific date(you can tailor it to your needs to take out a certain amount or just the minimum). this way you build your credit score by paying on time, dont pay the hefty interest, and "save money" by not paying any more than you need to. after you build up credit you can apply for "better" cards that offer money or a percentage back on your total bill. hope this helps |

I like debit cards better. Credit cards promote the spending of money you do not have. This is why most Americans are in tremendous debt. and it is also the reason for the recent legislation that allows credit card companies to dramatically increase interest rates for individuals unable to pay the minimum balance or who pay their balances late. This legislation dramatically impacts persons on fixed incomes whom have retired or are disabled. How exactly does this help the economy? I have no idea but it will now be more difficult for people to file bankruptcy meaning the credit card companies will have Americans by the balls for years to come.
Debit cards make people manage their money. |

I would not want a debit card. Credit cards are pretty safe, if one is stolen you liability is limited to about $50 and generally the credit card company will not hold you responsible at all. With a debit card, if someone steals the card and knows your code they can empty out your bank account and you have no claim. |
