    Is it a good idea to keep credit card always in ‘temporary blocked’ state, and ‘brief-unblock’ whenever necessary?

    Reply
    • Pramod Kumar says

      It is not good idea. You should only care about not sharing your card information with anyone such as CVV, Card Number, PIN and one another thing is you can set the spending limit to the card.

    I recently lost my icici debit card, I want a new card, however I am temporarily not residing on my registered mailing address. What can be done in this situation? Will I get a new card by visiting the Home branch or is there an option getting it on the nearest branch?

    Reply
    • Pramod Kumar says

      You can receive your new debit card on your registered post address. So before apply for a new card simply contact to your bank branch and give them your new address valid id proof and a written letter request. Then they will send the card on your new address..
