If you lose or misplace your card, you can temporarily freeze your Debit or Credit Card on our app. This blocks all card-based transactions. You can unfreeze it anytime. Freezing a card is quick, secure and doesn’t affect your account or debit orders.
When your card is frozen:
Freeze your card if you've temporarily misplaced it and expect to find it again soon. It's designed to help protect your account while you look for your card. It's not intended to stop subscriptions or payments.
If you've frozen and unfrozen the same card multiple times, you may no longer be able to temporarily freeze that card. This helps ensure the Freeze Card feature is used to protect your account when your card is temporarily lost or misplaced.
If you're concerned that your card has been lost, stolen or used for fraud, stop your card and contact us so we can investigate.
