CardsGone – Guard and cancel lost or stolen credit cards
Every Friday I try to share one of my favourite finds of the week – a web-site, tool or app that has impressed me.
My Friday Favourite this week is CardsGone – a free safe tool to guard and cancel lost or stolen UK credit, debit & membership cards.
Cancel Lost or Stolen Credit Cards
If you’ve ever lost a credit card, then you’ll know the sinking feeling that accompanies the realisation that your credit card is no longer in your wallet or purse, and frantic panic to quickly cancel the card and organise a replacement with your credit card company.
As a frequent traveller who has before now lost a card while abroad, it pays to have all the information you need to quickly cancel a card before any damage can be done.
Up until last week, I paid a company an annual fee to keep hold of all my credit cards details and in the event of a loss of card, telephoned them for details on what to do next.
With CardsGone – a site put together by MoneySavingExpert Martin Lewis – you can quickly select your credit, debit and membership cards and the website will instantly compile all the phone numbers you need in the event you suffer a lost or stolen card. There is no personal data stored and the service is offered for free.
