I shredded my Egg card last month and brought the balance to zero for the switchover otherwise there was a significant chance I would have done the same thing! Lucky you have a backup card :-)Don't thank me, thank my post :T

It's slightly ridiculous that this was all done on one particular day. You couldnt even change the PIN on the barclaycard until today. I had both in my wallet, but I only remembered when I logged into Egg and my Egg card had disappeared!
Anyone have any luck getting Egg Money Manager to see their 'new' Barclaycard?0 -
Thank you for this! It did make me chuckle - and great to know that I'm not the only one that makes mistakes when it comes to things like this:)Grocery Challenge £211/£455 (01/01-31/03)

Just used the Nike offer voucher code to grab some bargain £15 running tights... and realised too late that Paypal was using my old Egg card. Doh! This after I had remembered to change my PIN earlier. But it's all MSE's fault for enticing me to spend money !0

It's OK - there is a period of parallel runing of both old and new cards, according to a text they sent me after noting the post 7th Nov transaction on my old Egg card and I've used the new one.0
