I enjoy using my monzo account, but now have a debit card that is completely devoid of any colour other than the card base colour.
I appreciate that nowadays, the need to read the card details are few and far between, given the electronic nature of our spending, but particularly in low light situations, for example when giving card details over the phone, I find I struggle to read the numbers.
Just wondering if the card design could be looked at ??
Are the raised numbers needed on a debit card nowadays. ??
On a vaguely related matter, the Transferwise debit cards have no colouring on the embossed printing. I thought it was a mistake on my card, but it seems they are all like that. I soon got used to it even though it does make it a bit harder to read.
Not the most major of issues, as I say, just a thought… I’ve had the card about 8 months, and it is in and out of my wallet all day long as I now use the card exclusively.
No white left on the embossed areas of the card left whatsoever. And in reply to the side splitting hilarious remark above, no sandpaper has been used in the creation of this situation.
Perhaps I need to think about how I store the card.
Just checked mine and it’s like new, not a mark or scratch on it and it’s my main spend card. Had it since May 2016. I am a bit OCD with my things though.
I probably need to think about how I carry the card, its either in my old wallet or stuck in my phone cover… the only time it causes the slightest of issues is when I’m trying to read the card in low light… apart from that its fine.
Card started out in my wallet but usually in my iPhone folio case now. Must say I usually do contactless or Apple Pay and rarely Chip and Pin so maybe that’s where the wear happens?
