Debt Free or Bust

More Bad News – Debit Card Compromised

Somebody out there has my debit card number, and they’ve run up $389 in online charges on video games. I hate this. And I always seem to find out about it on Friday afternoon after the banks close. My bank has Saturday hours, so I’ll have to take care of this tomorrow morning.

I’m going to have to get another debit card.

I think this is still fallout from when I tried Project Payday back in July. I’ve had several fraudulent charges show up on my debit card ever since then. If I put a block on my current debit card number and get a new one with a new number, it will solve the problem.

    1. That sucks! I shop online a lot and I’ve never had any problems with my debit card. I guess it pays to be careful when giving out personal information. Hope you can solve this!

    2. It does suck. But I’m off to the bank to get a new debit card and freeze the old one. Fortunately, you can get a new one in just a few minutes. Some banks don’t do that, but mine does.
