Taking Care of Your Funds While on a Vacation

Some people prefer to spend vacation when it is not during peak season.  By this, they can avoid the hassle of being in too much crowd and spending more.  Most of the times, vacations are most costly and expensive when it is peak season. Each traveler aims to have a wonderful and stress free vacation.  One of the issues that may be encountered is to be a victim or fraud or to have your credit card or money stolen.  Here are some suggestions that can be considered in order to ensure that your finances will be secured during your travel.

Do not write your personal information.  PIN codes must be very confidential.  Refrain from writing them on pieces of paper as someone might see and gain access on them on the information. Choose PIN codes that are not obvious.  Be careful with handling any document that contains personal information.

Keep your card  in a secure place.  Never leave your card unattended especially in a restaurant , in your car or any other related place. As much as possible,  always bring it with you.

Make sure that you are accessing legitimate sites. If in case you need to input your credit card information online, ensure that you are in a secure site. This is applicable when you shop online or when making any other payment or transactions. In addition, be careful with using public internet connections or Wi-Fi.

Do not give your account number and other related information over the phone; unless, you are the one who initiated the call.

See to it that your credit card is returned to you and should when you use it for your transactions.  If receipts have a duplicate, dispose them safely.

Report immediately.  If in case of loss or stolen card, report it  right away to your financial institution or bank.
