I have seen it only once so far when one minor German publisher asked me to send the same details per snail-mail. Luckily they also had other options.

I can't really know how common it is in UK, never been there, but I would definitely be surprised.

Can confirm it's normal enough in both Canada and the US, though the security code is only sometimes requested. I don't have knowledge either way about this question for the UK.
It's incredibly normal in the UK. You can pay for your delivery pizza that way, or your car insurance or whatever.
