Tip: Financial Safety
Change out your credit cards often to “purge” bogus billings
This will save you money and headaches. Every three to four months I cancel and REPLACE my debit and or credit cards at no cost to me. Keep the card just get a new number from the issuer. If you cancel the card it may negatively affect your credit score. This protects against unauthorized charges and most importantly prevents JUNK charges from accumulating on your card. For instance, it will save you the time and effort, trying to review each and every transaction to make sure you still want to pay for it (gym membership, subscription services of any kind). Moreover, it will force you to re-activate deadly RECURRING charges that happen automatically (by ensuring you make the decision AGAIN to agree to those charges)!
