Debit Card Fraud

stuartymacka

Hi,

I recently had some fradulent activity on my debit card :mad:, mainly mobile phone top ups to o2 (online). My bank contacted me fairly quickly and have since cancelled my Debit Card.

My question is, is this enough? Should I be looking into cancelling my account or doing anything else.

Thanks

Well i would have thought your bank would have cancelled the card so it doesnt happen again,

why cancel your account, have you looked at if the security on your pc is upto date

I had the same thing on my account with mobile phone top ups to 02. My bank refunded me the money and sent me a new debit card. They dealt with the whole thing very quickly and cancelling my account had not even occurred to me. If you cancel your account you will have a lot of hassle setting up a new one and giving your payees your new details. I really don't think a new account is necessary.
