Are you sure that the expiration date is not checked for any vendor? I recently paid online (Mastercard I think) and the transaction got declined because I entered the wrong expiration date. The date was in the future, I just entered a wrong month. So there must've been a check. But could be that they used 3D secure (or equivalent) and it got declined there, the check often happens too fast to notice.
- tzs 9y agoIt's possible that some of the enhanced security systems, like 3D secure, do check more. It's also possible that there is more checking for transactions that are not flagged as recurring payments.
