Disadvantages:


Credit cards can be stolen, as can cash. They may be physically stolen or someone may steal your
credit card number from a website, over the phone etc. The good news is that, unlike cash, if you
find your card has been stolen and you inform your credit company instantly, you will not pay for
purchases that somebody else has made.
The biggest disadvantage is that they are inviting cardholders to spend more money that they
don’t yet have. It is far too easy to spend more than you can afford using a credit card.

Credit cards issue a monthly spending limit. While they are mostly high, if you exceed it, you may
face even bigger charges.
