Do you sign the back of debit/credit cards?

I honestly never have.

I literally do, but I metaphorically don't.

Typically no, but I have in the past.

I generally try to, if I remember. I seldom have anyone check, but I lived in Colorado for a while and the cashier checked the signature every single time I used a card there.

i do, but it usually smears off in a week anyway so whats the point

I write I.D. in sharpie. I've been ID'd once.

I like what Costco does with their Visa cards. Your membership picture is printed on the back of the card.

of course, and i don't pull the tags off mattresses either. you think i'm an animal?

I write "check id" on mine. About 1 out of 10 places does it

What's the point? That signature will last about a week in my wallet before it is unrecognizable, and it eventually will fade completely.

So it's actually more like 1 in 100 transactions. Then half of my transactions are online; now we're at 1 in 200.

Make maybe 3 to 5 transactions per day = my ID gets checked once every other month.

Since I only use it online, no.

Yes only because more than once in the past a store would not accept my unsigned card. Of course they allowed me to sign it on the spot.

This.

I write "ask for ID".
And if they do, I always add a little extra to the tip. So, I've added a total of about $5...ever
