  • Quick post from me, my bank blocked my card last year as I withdrew money from UK and US on the same day, took a while to work out when we were in Belize that they had done it, mine and OH card too!

    Off to pick OH up to drive him to dentist as he has to have a tooth out, good job I have some soup left over from my trip yesterday
  • My daughter used her bank card in a travel shop on a saturday afternoon, then straight after got a call saying they had cancelled her card because of suspected fraud:eek: They said they would send another card out within five days, but when she asked how was she supposed to withdraw money to get to work on the monday, he said ' I am sorry Miss **** but that is not my problem' :eek:

    If anyone is looking for Hello Kitty I have come across these

    Happy birthday npsmama

    I wish my bank blocked my card! I used it in France last Sunday to buy 10 euros worth of petrol and it's costing me £110! As that's what the petrol station is asking for and the bank is giving them.

    I bought something from ebay and ticked the donate £1 to the Pakistan flood relief and my bank blocked my account for suspected fraud (really embarassing cos I only discovered when I tried to use my card for my weekly shop :eek:). They unblocked it after a long phone call, something to do with people put through small amounts so they can get your details without you noticing so they automatically check for small transactions and put the account on hold.
