Not sure if this has been discussed previously on AAM and it may not apply in Ireland but would just like to hear from our preferably knowledgable banker's views on this.
I watched a programme on BBC1 one morning recently where two women had suffered fraud on their bank accounts. Their PIN numbers were used so Barclays bank refused to meet their claims and one suffered £16,000 loss and the other £1,800.
The bank advised them to immediately cut up their cards which in the long term did not help their investigation because it was claimed that the transactions are stored on the card. This gentleman recommended not cutting up your card Professor Ross Anderson, Cambridge University if fraud has taken place on your bank card with Chip and PIN and its this point that I'm left wondering about.
Any views from any of our bank people who may have worked in this area?
