2)  I believe Erik is correct; there is no limit on debit cards other than
the amount in the account.  It may not a huge problem if there is only a few
hundred dollars in the account but as the amount in the account grows so
does the possible loss if a card is stolen; the account and pin number is
compromised, or if the card is misplaced.

The thing that's bad about its use as a debit mastercard/visa is that you don't actually need a PIN to use it. Good old Credit cards and their lack of security...
