I know this is a credit card comparison website, but there is something that has come up that is particularly important to those who already have the credit cards they need, as well as those scouting for a credit card and doing credit card comparisons online…
It’s all about security at the end of the day. Credit cards have always been an easy target for fraudsters and this time of year will always see an increase of them all over the place. So allow me to interupt your credit card comparison for a moment or two to let you know a few scary details that might just sink into your mind for long enough to save you a lot of heartache and money!
A recent survey has suggested that only 6y% of UK residents check their credit card statment every month and a massive 10% don’t check it at all! Can you believe that. Well to begin with, i’m not rich enough never to check my statement, but either way it’s shocking news, and something to be very, very concerned about. Fraudsters rely on such complacency you know, so don’t let them get away with it. Check your statement often, and if you can, check it at least two or three times a month if you have a faclity to do so online.
And while your doing you credit card comparison it’s worth checking what each credit card company are prepared to do to protect you from such attacks on your credit card details etc. Don’t forget to look after yourself and your money!
