O2 Travel Alerts takes the hassle out of overseas travel for UK card holders

Alexander, I agree its puzzling they are taking so long, particularly when you consider the knock on benefits in terms of fraud prevention. We are finding that many German customers like to switch the card off completely and then just switch it on when they want to use it. Easy to do because its all real-time and brings peace of mind because even if you lose the card, you know it wont work unless you switch it on. I think this year will see more banks roll this out.

Alexander your quite right, all that's needed is a big on/off switch, but why just have it for travelling? Why not for online transactions or types of purchases you don't like ( or want your kids to make!), why not control where and how your card is used by switching it on and off from your phone? Well that's exactly what we can do! Already live for Deutsche Bank in Germany and coming to a card near you soon. Card Control by Vipera does all of those things plus helps you track your spending ( see video http://goo.gl/C18GTF ) It's not hard to do, we just need to ask our bank to provide it.
