Here US, some stores when using a chip credit card (not debit/checking account btw) requires a pin instead of a signature, not sure if they call it a pin but it's 4 digits to verify purchases . . . instead of signature.

I have never heard of a US credit card using a PIN. May I ask what kind of card you have?

I have a MasterCard that takes a pin. I've been asked to enter the pin at several places, including WalMart. It is a credit card, not a debit card.

Frankly, I'm baffles by these claims that US cards don't work with chip and pin because so far, if I use the chip, I have been required to use the pin.

I also have a corporate amex with a pin set up, but I've never used it.

My corporate CitiBank card required me to set a pin when they switched to chip cards. All my other chip cards have been chip and signature though.

Target VISAs switched to chip and pin recently. I assume related to their data leak.
