    kat i can't believe that about your card. good job your bank was on the ball though and declined the payment. bit of a pain that you can't use your card for a couple of days but def worth it in the long run.
    Goals for February
    Declutter 2/50
    Money Made £0/£200

    I totally agree - I was ready for a big argument with them about declining my card at Asda - thanked the fraud department after the explanation though!!

    I'm hoping my new card will be through my letter box on Friday - not nice having to ask DH for "pocket money" (he loves it though :rotfl: )

  • Forgot that I'd put £20 into target 2 the day before I set my % aim so I'm actually 5.6%/20% :D

    Glad the bank declined that one for you! Did you get any explanation as to how they think someone got hold of your card? x

    No not yet. I had my new one in the post last night so they were quick with that. I was working in job 2 yesterday and one of the customers had exactly the same thing done to them (different bank) so it must have been local :eek:
