This is like my 4th one in about 5 years.
I got an email about it last week....I called the bank and all they could tell me is that the vendor "suspects" it was hacked. When that happens BOA sends a new card. They won't tell me which vendor, because it is only a suspicion. If it is confirmed "you will hear about it on the news".
Well so far I haven't heard anything, but this really ticks me off. Now I have to update all my online payments.
Grrrrrrrrr.
Anyone else recently get a notice about this?

A bank (years ago) told me it was some sort of (new) ID photo card. Found out later that it was a debit card, so I cut it up. Funny how some people just don't explain anything of importance. Probably on commission, selling 'products', etc.

I know people like their debit cards, to avoid using credit cards for any number of reasons, but a computer banking expert whose opinion I trust (she works for one of the biggest banks in the country) advised me some years back to only use my debit card for getting cash out of the ATM.
Just thought I'd pass it on.

This has happened to me several times with BOA too. Most recently a few weeks ago. They seem to be all over it when it happens, and they stop the transactions before I ever find out about them, but it happens way too often. My new card has the chip in it, something else to worry about.

Citibank/Citicorp (my Sears M/C) was compromised right around Christmas.
I only use the card so I can get perks ($50 & $100 Shell gas cards).
Screwed me up with shopping, auto payments (ez pays, EZ Pass, etc.).
Then when I finally did get the new card/new number, half the time I used it, it got denied, the Security dept. had a trigger finger. UGH!
We travel a lot and I always have to call them or I get denied. And even then, it still happens.
I usually go through self checkout because I can't stand when the clerk tells me it wasn't approved. DH has a FIT and says it's not worth the aggravation w/Citicorp.
