Have you been affected by credit card fraud?

Have you been affected by credit card fraud?

Credit and debit card fraud has risen by 25% in the last year. Banks say losses amount to £535m. Have you been a victim? Do the government and banks do enough to combat the problem?

    I have been hit on my Virgin Credit card for £8000 - and the card company failed to recognise the fraud (one transaction of £7000 - and change of address details two days in a row) - and Financial Ombudsman have decline to accept it was fraud taking side of Virgin...no communication with me whatsoever when the fraud was being commited - and now its all my fault.
    Virgin Credit cards or Media - forget it....

    From what I read, hear and from my own experience, I suspect that there may be an "insider ring" in BP & Shell petrol stations. 76% of respondents have, or know somebody who has, suffered card fraud. That's a phenomenal number! What's being done about it.........?

    Believe that my card details were stolen at the Shell garage, money taken out in Australia, sometimes on the same day as I was using it here!
