All zeros in a bank card's CVC code

Not to excuse the Booking.com blunder, but I'd return that card for the same reason I once returned one with PIN code "1234" ...

Couldn't you have just changed the PIN?

You can just do it yourself at any ATM though?

I can change my PIN through online banking site, just requires SMS password as confirmation. In fact that's how I set initial PIN when activating a new card. Never tried doing that in ATM.

Not in EU it seems. Your credit card pin get assigned when the card is issued, and can never be changed after that. Go figure...

That's not the case. EU ATMs have that functionality too.

I live in the Netherlands and have a MasterCard credit card from ABN AMRO. The pin for this card gets assigned when the card is issued and the only way to change it, according to ABN AMRO, is by requesting a new card.
