US credit card not accepted anymore

There was a period when businesses and ATM's could not handle cards with chips ... now its over...
 
I've never been asked to actually show my DNI at Carrefour or Coto. They just ask for the number. Perhaps I've just been lucky.

I am surprised. They always ask me in Disco. They want to know that I am the person who is the rightful owner of the card. I am surprised that the COTO cashiers take the risk.
 
In many years in Argentina I have always been asked for my DNI at supermarkets. Not so in all restaurants. They are usually satisfied with just the credit card. I've often wondered if the government monitors the use of foreign credit cards linked with DNIs.
 
That's a scary thought. I've been using a US credit card for over twenty years without problems, but those AFIP guys keep getting smarter.
 
I’ve Been using my US credit cards for almost 20 years in Argentina without problems. I’m using them now more than ever the past few weeks and no problems at all. And now that the white rate is higher past few months, I’ve even gotten secondary cards for my close friends and they just give me the cash. And all the better as I’m getting points!

I really would like to know if the AFIP detect use of foreign credit cards by people with DNIs.
