The automated service clearly says; if you’re not the customer do not continue with the call. The person answering the phone will then have the option to:

• tell us that the number is no longer valid for the customer, or
• allow the automated service to leave a voice message. 

As part of our ongoing commitment to reduce card fraud, the automated service is the quickest way for us to contact you where we have identified a potentially fraudulent transaction and may have blocked your card.

If the transactions are genuine it will allow you to unblock your card immediately. If you do not recognise the transactions(s), you can talk to a consultant to discuss them further.

You can update your details online if you're registered for our Internet Bank or you can visit us in branch.

We may include transactions from your current account, credit card or savings accounts cards which have been used on the internet, over the phone, in shops or to make an ATM withdrawal.

Your card can be used within minutes of you confirming the transactions which are read to you by the automated service are genuine.

If your transaction was declined you will need to re-do the transaction.
