Keep an eye on your bank accounts.

Money being taken, often in several small amounts, apparently.

It seems that banks are now required to alert you if you are going overdrawn, or beyond an agreed overdraft limit.

Mine has you opted in, if they have your mobile number - I never had any reason to supply them with that before, but have just updated my profile to include it - it meant that I finally have used the card reader that I must have had for at least five years now.

Luckily, I did know where it was.




It's been available for a few years, but in an opt-in manner. Now you will be opted-in by default, though you can opt out, if you so wish.

 

Is there a link for olde people

You may be contacted by your bank, or you may need to just ask them, not everybody interprets rules in the same way.
