Just called HSBC Premier. They offered two options. One is to place the card on hold until I feel happy to unlock it again. Second option is to kill the card completely and send a replacement.

I have chosen option two. Surely option one is flawed as the crims could use this card data at any time in the future.. especially with the cvv code!

Utterly pissed off with this. I have two credit cards, both are compromised. I’m flying on holiday in the morning to the Indian Ocean for a week (BA!) and have no credit card to settle the hotel bill. Will have to use a debit card to pay a pretty lumpy bill at the end.
