Wish you could ditch the debit and go back to the old ATM card?

What you might not know: That's still an option at a lot of banks and credit unions.

If you just want to use your card to withdraw cash from an ATM, call your bank or credit union and find out if they offer ATM cards.

One caveat: ATM cards can still be used to purchase gas or merchandise at some locations, says Feddis.

"An ATM card is a debit card, but it's basically PIN-only," she says. "You can use it at a gas station or any place where they take a PIN."
