Never have more cards than you NEED


While it is always advised to have more than 1 credit card, but if it gets lost, you shouldn't have more credit cards than you actually need to use. The principal reason why this is the case is because it becomes harder to keep a track of which cards you've got and where you've kept them together with the more cards you have.


Always keep a photocopy of your cards


How often have you been asked what your card number is only to wind up searching for your card to get the number? Now, what happens if you've got a card stolen and no credit card statement to hand? You've got a problem! Because of this, it's always best practice to take photocopies of your credit cards so you’ll always know where to find the numbers if anything unfortunate happen to your card.


Always keep your receipts separate


Never give your account number to someone you do not know


Never leave your account details open to public viewing
