    If the card is in your name, then no. Although if it's some sort of 'child account' then they might be able to. If you get your monthly summaries through the post then they could see what you're ordering through there, though you'd have to have pretty nosy parents for that.

    If your account is opened under their name, then yes. Legally, if they cosigned the account (which if you're under 18, you need one). Then they have all access to the account to see what you paid for, when, and they could manage transfers.


    If you want to hide something, make a PayPal, send the money from the bank to the PayPal, then buy it via PayPal. :3

    Well the US banks are probably different to UK ones. Who set it up? Your or your mother?

    If you can check your statement online then she can find out that way.

    In-case you missed it.

    Are you still a minor? How long ago was the account opened?

    It depends. On my statement it says 'online purchase', or 'jagex ltd', so I don't worry about it, even if they did check they wouldn't be bothered in my case!

    I remember when i was getting my first debit card the lady at the bank said "Do you want half controll or give it all to him" and so i assume from that that there are ways for parents to have controll and permission over certein accounts by linking them together,so i would just be safe and assume they can see what your buying and to think twice before purchasing that fleshlight. Alternativeley, You could deposit the money from your bank to your paypal balance and then buy things through paypal without a trace. On your bank statement it would just come up as you transferring money to paypal.
