Can you guys please enlighten me with your experience.
I have been alerted by Barclaycard two weeks ago, someone had fraudulently cloned my card and used it to buy petrol around Blackburn, Lancashire and Haslingden while I live in East Anglia. I never even heard of Haslingden, now I know where it is. Today I managed to be able to access my account online after almost two weeks wait to get my id and passcode. To my surprise instead of £120 there were £623 of phantom petrol purchases I didn't even know of. I began to realise crime still does pay by taking advantage in the loop hole that Tesco pay at pump does not use the PIN on chip. Eleven fraudulent transactions were carried out during the two weeks. I was told if I do not make sure my bank account is in credit I will be charged 19.9% interest. What a bloody nuisance? Funny enough when I view my statement it showed £60 in a transaction and these Barclaycard call centre can only see £1 being debited. Not sure what the hell is going on in this current high petrol prices. Surely this is the fault of Tesco the largest supermarket in the country still behind in their chip card reader implementation at Pay at Pump and they still have not removed this feature or install chip card readers.
