At the chip gas pumps, I'm seeing paper signs left by the owner that say "Leave card inserted". I'm glad everyone is going the chip route but I still wish that pins would be required for credit cards. Just having a 4 digit pin is loads more secure than expecting some cashier to verify a signature on the back of the card (which never happens). I can still bypass the pin on my debit card in most situations by just entering in nothing unless I'm doing cash back. I'm not really sure how that's supposed to protect me, whats the point of a pin if you don't need to type it in? Card companies are quick to refund you for any fraud but it creates an inconvenience for the user that really just isn't necessary. I've been on vacation abroad when my credit card was used fraudulently which I had to cancel immediately. Luckily I had access to my corporate credit card I could use to pay my hotel bill since that was the only thing I couldn't afford with the cash I had on me but I very well could have been shit out of luck. I paid the charges off myself and wasn't in too much trouble after I explained the situation.
