If your credit card’s been lost or stolen, it’s important to make sure it can’t be used by someone else.
Freezing your card means temporarily stopping your credit card being used for:
• Store payments or cash machine withdrawals
• Making balance or money transfers
Some payments won’t be affected by freezing your card such as:
• Regular payments taken automatically, such as subscriptions
• Payments going into your credit card, like a monthly Direct Debit or a refund
