(OP) User ID: 80544623 United States 07/14/2021 09:15 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | How do you get a spare? You mean from the same bank & account?? I'll ask them about that tomorrow (when I go to get a new card) - second one in less than a month! I was sitting at home today, didn't really need the card then, so I'll have time to get a new one, but it's a pain to keep going through this garbage. HOW (and why) does this keep happening????

Anonymous Coward User ID: 77844123 United States 07/14/2021 09:17 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Also, I don't use debit cards anymore. I learned my lesson after my bank account got emptied a couple days before Christmas years back. Credit cards are so much safer. If you pay your balance off every month it's no different than a debit card. Better actually because it improves your credit score too. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 77844123 United States 07/14/2021 09:22 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I don’t think the debit card specifically is your issue. Quoting: REaliZe Somebody has all your details... Watch out for new lines of credit... Hmmmm. Thanks for the heads up. I will check for that! Don't save your credit/debit cards on any websites. Always manually enter in your details each time. Also, it could have been any in-store purchase as well if it was swiped. Thieves can install skimmers that you can't even notice that record the details. Card fraud is just an inevitable fact of life now. |

So then less than a week later, I'm hacked again?!?! I'm starting to think it WAS Chewy. |

(OP) User ID: 80544623 United States 07/14/2021 09:34 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Cancel your debit card so it can’t be used. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 76832232 Maybe the bank gave someone else the same card number. The bank contacted ME today and asked if I tried to purchase gas at a WAWA (don't even know which one). Obviously, I did not, so I said "NO." So they cancelled the card immediately. And now I need to go in to the bank and have a new card issued. Second time in a month of this type incident. |
