How To Keep Your Pin Safe

How can I keep my PIN safe?

The important thing is that you should never keep any record of your PIN number with your card. The two should always be entirely separate. It is particularly important to remember that a bank will never phone you and ask you for your PIN number, and likewise if you go on the internet and pay for goods, then no genuine internet site will request your PIN number, so don't disclose your PIN number to anybody. The other thing to remember is that it is very easy nowadays if you have difficulty remembering your PIN number to go to an ATM and change it yourself to a more memorable number that you can easily remember in the future, but it's also important not to make that number too obvious. Don't, for example, use numbers that relate to your own date of birth.
