Wow. That seems... less useful. Like, the huge embossed numbers weren't really necessary because the machines those are for no longer are popularly used so who cares (I have used one, but it was last decade and it did not feel like they'd have turned me away if it didn't work). But a CVV must still actually be useful to some fraction of your real customers, and likewise the expiry date.

The CVV code of this card changes once every 10 minutes, so I understand them not printing that. Yet yeah, could have put the card number there with the dates, but I guess if the CVV already cannot be printed, why not just avoid all of it?

Regardless, doesn't really matter much anyways as I don't think I've used a proper card for months, everything around me supports NFC mobile payments since years back.

Sounds like you need to call your bank and make a formal complaint about it
