Covering the plastic in your wallet - a question!

Hi, I hope someone can offer some advice please.

I have a number of debit & credit cards and I'd like to know people's opinions as to which scheme/company is best to go with. The service I am referring to is the one in which you register your plastic and then in event of you losing your card(s) - i.e your wallet is stolen, they contact the issuers and organise replacements.

I do not know whether;

a) this is worthwhile in the first instance and
b) then, if so, which companies people recommend.

Thanks in advance.

    Personally I don't think it's worthwhile.

    I just keep a note of all my card numbers and their corresponding lost/stolen phone numbers so that I know precisely where to find them should I need to.
