Tips for the Responsible Use of Debit/Credit Cards

• Always protect your Debit/Credit Card and keep it in a safe place, just as you would cash.
• Keep a record of your account numbers, their expiration dates, the phone number, and address of each company in a secure place.
• Save receipts from all transactions and compare with billing statement. Shred all receipts before you throw them away.
• Memorize your PIN and do not write it on your card for any reason. Never give your PIN to anyone.
• Always know how much money you have in your account and review account history regularly.
• Never give your debit/credit card number or security number (3 digit code on the backside of card) over the phone or online unless you are certain the recipient is legitimate.
• Never sign a blank receipt. When you sign a receipt, draw a line through any blank spaces above the total.
• If you have to give someone your card to make a transaction, try to keep an eye on your card and get it back as quickly as possible.
• Open bills promptly and reconcile accounts monthly, just as you would your checking account.
• Report questionable charges promptly and in writing to the card issuer.
