Did the bank charge you for the replacement cards? Is there any real reason not to just regularly - say every 3 months - request a new card for peace of mind?

- mikeash 12y agoThey did not. That stuff is basically a loss leader for them. From what I recall with the Target incident, their cost is something like $2-5 for each replacement card, so it's not entirely trivial. If you requested a new one on a regular basis for no good reason, they might put a stop to it one way or another. As far as peace of mind goes, since the consequences are so mild, I wouldn't worry about it.
- zevyoura 12y agoThe biggest obstacle is that it's an annoyance to update the number for any recurring charges you have set up.
