They paid the money but called me when they noticed that wasn't part of my normal pattern of spending. I checked and realized the card had been stolen, and had it cancelled, but that was too late to stop that first charge.

If you debit card says VISA on it with a 16-digit account number embossed on the card, it CAN be used as a credit card without the PIN. If it doesn't, it can't.
Your totally clueless. You can't open a checking acocunt with $50 and then go out and run up a bill for $5K. Come on now a check card sends you statements in the mail. Not bills requesting monthly payments. I'm having flashbacks like I'm at the counter right now.
