My Chase debit card (issued very recently) doesn't have a signature strip. It has my name (in a format I chose - which didn't have to include my full name - e.g. could be FirstName LastInitial) - and no numbers anywhere visible (apart from Chase's phone numbers)
I am fine with the info on the back of the card, but draw the line at no numerical data at all. As stated earlier I routinely read the numbers off the card when ordering online or by phone.
Oddly my Chase card issued late last year does have only my name on the front, but the numerical info is there on the back, all unembossed of course.
Someone suggested that such blank cards are more secure. But since I would have to carry that information around with me on a phone or piece of paper, it would actually be less secure for me.
