Our Turn

Got an e-mail from Capital One this afternoon, asking us to review 5 charges. 4 of them were fraudulent, so I clicked on "Wrong." The screen reminded us that we are NOT responsible for fraudulent charges, and asked us to call in. Did, on our wifi phone. They made it clear that these things just happen, killed the card, and offered to DHL a new one here in 5-8 days. We opted for home for March. Again, they reminded us that the charges would disappear in 72 hours.

Capital one now issues cards with different numbers on the same account. That means that although MY card was hacked, his wasn't! Account is still fine. If the other card is hacked, we will have them send a replacement here.

Credit cards, other things, and life get messed with sometimes. Fortunately, it usually works out in the end, at least with credit cards!!!
