CVV codes without autocomplete attribute

1 pointsby caseman72over 11 years ago
Whenever I submit a form with CVV codes I wonder about if the company is storing CVV codes.<p>I went to MyDomain.com to update my CC and their form has a CVV code that doesn&#x27;t have the autocomplete=&#x27;off&#x27; attribute so my browser remembers the CVV number. I opened a ticket to let them know.<p>MyDomain.com: &quot;CVV number is your additional protection to ensure that your Credit Card information is not being used fraudulently.&quot; I replied - that is my point.<p>MyDomain.com: &quot;If you still feel CVV number is in the account seen please get back with screenshot of the page.&quot; I replied - No, then you&#x27;d have my CVV code with is supposed to be private. (their ticketing system doesn&#x27;t allow screenshots either)<p>MyDomain.com: &quot;Yes, the CVV number is not visible for the customers due to Security reason.&quot; I replied - It&#x27;s not PCI DSS compliant to store CVV codes, it may even be illegal.<p>MyDomain.com&#x27;s legal response: &quot;I wanted to personally take an opportunity and confirm that we do &quot;not&quot; store CVV information, nor do we store the entire 16 digits of a credit card.&quot; I replied - How do you charge my card without the number?<p>MyDomain.com&#x27;s legal response: &quot;At this time we have no immediate plans on making specific changes to our billing submission forms as you have requested&quot;<p>It makes me uncomfortable using a company that doesn&#x27;t understand the internet to hold all of my domains. If you have suggestions of other domain registrars please comment. I am thinking of migrating.
