    Grrr! Who's been nicking my money?

    Now I thought I was pretty careful with my cards online but some b*stard's had money off both my credit cards, even the one I never use any more (which I physically destroyed a few months ago)!

    I've spoken to both banks in question and they've both moved to sort the problem so I'm not going to be out of pocket but I'm still fuming and I want to know who's been trying to have away with my cash!

    Re: Grrr! Who's been nicking my money?

    I shall devote my entire week off to hunting down these dirty thieves and explaining to them why they're such naughty boys.

    With pliars.

    And hot needles.

    And a rotweiler and three jars of peanut butter.

    Re: Grrr! Who's been nicking my money?

    While you're at it could you ask them if they're the same ones who tried to steal nearly £10,000 from me last week?? If so I'd happily help dispose of the bodies.

    I don't know exactly how they got it but it must've been some place online that I've used both cards, of which there are only a few.

    They bought topups from O2 and Vodaphone and since I'm on contract with T-Mobile...

    Did your bank fail epically in spotting the fraud to? This happened to me and Halifax never wondered why 3k went from my account to 6 different countries in less than three minutes. Then the cheeky muppets told me I had to wait 6 weeks for the money back lol

    They did fail but since it was both on credit cards it's really their money at stake not mine...
