How to block & unblock your card
What is a temporary block?
A temporary block will stop any transactions from taking place on your card, either in-person or online, until the temporary block is removed. You can unblock your card again using Card Manager.
- Recurring payments or subscriptions you've set up on the card may not be made.
- If someone else has a different card linked to one of your accounts, they will still be able to make the transactions using their card.
- Even if your card has been temporarily blocked, you'll be responsible for any authorised transactions. These could include any recurring payments or subscriptions we're required to process.
- You'll still be charged fees and interest on your card account while your card is temporarily blocked.
