Credit card fraud can happen to the best of us. There are a number of ways this can happen e.g. scams or stolen cards - but the bottom line is that it’s unfortunately a pretty common occurrence. If you have been a victim of fraud, you need to act quickly. You can usually speak to your bank to freeze your account and request to have any fees and charges reversed. We’ll take you through some of the common issues that arise from credit card fraud and how to tackle them.

If you’ve ever used a card to buy something and been charged more than the retail price it might have had a card surcharge applied. Card surcharges are legal in Australia. But retailers can only apply card surcharges that cover their reasonable costs of accepting the transaction. If you think you’ve been charged an incorrect surcharge, you may have a right to contact your bank to complain, or try using Ajust to help with your card surcharge issue.
