Mine does. If I "misplace" my card I can go online and tell my bank to instantly freeze any new card purchases, without actually, formally cancelling the card. Then if you find it an hour or day later, you can simply reactivate the card. The banks like this feature because it saves them a lot of money cancelling and then issuing new cards, and for the customer the advantages are obvious. Glad you found yours so soon. :)Lowandslowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08608734222483888884noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-968059214758329257.post-8982891298710685932017-05-02T09:25:13.159-04:002017-05-02T09:25:13.159-04:00I've misplaced my credit card a few times but ...I've misplaced my credit card a few times but so far I've always found it without issue. stephen Hayeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17659054447637207734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-968059214758329257.post-75767779657080250852017-05-02T09:20:01.734-04:002017-05-02T09:20:01.734-04:00Well at least no one else had the card and were ch...Well at least no one else had the card and were charging things.
