Card protection

Options
I do hope I have posted this in the right place - apologies if not.

Can anyone recommend a good card protection company - we want to protect all our cards from theft etc etc both at home and on holiday.

Sentinel seems a good choice but if anyone can recommend any others It would be appreciated
Thanks

    Varying views on CPP.

    Here's a recent victims posting on this forum:

    AND

    Click here. Card Protection Plan.

    Tip 1: Ask CPP some hard questions regarding fraud committed on your card using your PIN before you notice your card lost or stolen.


    Tip 2: Reduce Personal Risk. Unless you wish to use your Credit Cards for cash withdrawals, then consider opting for Chip & Signature (No PIN misuse liability issues).

    I hope it's not too late but I'd recommend avoiding CPP at all costs. I've had a nasty experience with them and their customer service is rubbish, they don't care about customer satisfaction, once they have your money. In future I'd simply keep a list of cards and respective numbers to phone up and cancel.

    If you're going for cover, perhaps your original choice of Sentinel would be better ;)
