Default Re: Choice of credit/charge cards in TV

In today era of fradulent credit card purchases I would be very hesitant to only own one credit card or one brand of card. Recently as a result of the theft of credit card information from Sweetbay, I received a call that my credit card had fraudlent activity on it and as a result they were cancelling it, taking care of all unauthorized charges and sending me and my wife new credit cards . Well that took approx 7-10 days. If we only had ONE card we would have be "out of luck" especailly if we had any travel plans.
Suggest you have Master Card, Visa and Amex! Coscos only takes AMEX but not MC or Visa and travelling in Europe you find it all across the board on who accepts what
