Went to service station to fill the Jeep this morning….card declined! Once home I called the bank and they said everything looked fine…then this afternoon I received a call from Credit Card Security
Wanted to know if I booked an airline ticket from Germany in the amount of $649.00….duh no, and to verify the card was valid there was a charge from Apple for 49 cents and another for 11 cents…. Who knows where in the world they got the info…it’s a chip card BUT the merchants are what we are hacked…not my card… So disgusting, why have the chip card IF the merchants are open doors….. Card was cancelled another will arrive in 5-7 business days…before I ended the conversation with the security lady I told her I was livid over merchants not accepting ApplePay, this would end my being hacked…period…. We Mac users are pretty secure but the majority of the places we shop are still being run by Windows boxes and she said they had my credit card, the security code, the expiration data…but not my correct mailing address….. With Apple’s system NONE of that would be available to the merchant or the hacker….. Steam is filling the room, this is so ridiculous…..my company “makes” me use CVS, they must have an arrangement on cost….I have told CVS over and over that once I retire all my records will be transferred to Walgreens….they use ApplePay and I’m going to do all I can to support those merchants…. Going home to take a valium…..
