Security
Using the card is safer than carrying cash. When using the card for payments or cash withdrawal, you will need to enter a PIN (in certain countries, you may be required to sign the sales receipt). PIN is a secret identification number known only to the card holder. Therefore, it should be kept secret and it should not be written down on a paper near your card.
If you forget your card PIN, and you use online banking, you can check your card PIN any time in our mobile app (m-zaba).
The user is obliged to report a lost or stolen card immediately to the bank’s Contact Centre (24/7) via tel. 01 3789 789 and confirm the report in writing in nearest branch of the bank.
It is also possible to report a lost/stolen card in the nearest bank branch.
Please adhere to the following pieces of advice:
Remember the PIN and never write it down on the card or other documents
Destroy the old card (it will suffice to cut it through the magnetic stripe) after the expiration date
Do not communicate the PIN or card data EVER to ANYONE
Do not leave the card in visible places (in the car, in a cloakroom, in a hotel room, restaurant, etc.)
Make sure to check the transaction amount prior to payment
After the payment, verify that the card returned to you is really yours
Keep our address and telephone number handy to be able to quickly report a lost or stolen card.
