Default RCU violating VISA and MasterCard PCI requirements ?

I just recently got notified my credit card was out of date and that I could no longer participate in the marketplace or do anything else.

So anyway, I entered the area where it requested my Mastercard/Visa card number, card expiration date, and the security code on the back of the card. The only way it would have known this, is if this information was stored somewhere. However, its against the Visa and MasterCard PCI regulations to store the security code or so-called CVV2, or CVVS data or magnetic stripe data on any computer even if its encrypted.

Can a moderator or someone running RCU tell me whats going on here and if you are storing this data which seems to be the case since you have not charged any card? If so, I want my data removed. Also, you need to have your legal department look at this as Visa and MasterCard typically fine companies in excess of 1 million dollars for doing this.

I appreciate you prompt response.

Thank you.
