Do you CAREFULLY check your Credit Card statements every month.?

Yeah,i do check my credit card statements every month,just to be on the safe side.I dont have bad experience on my credit card though but i have on my paypal account.Someone send us an email that we had an unpaid purchase on ebay.And since we always buy stuff at ebay we thought that it was genuine but when we open the link on the email it was asking for our paypal password,and it wasnt paypal page so we decided that it was a scam.We called paypal immediately and they confirmed that it was actually a scam.

Have you found out where those fraudulent charges come from? Yo ushould probably cancel the card and get a replacement or file some sort of identity theft claim. That's not normal, you should check that out.

I glance at my transactions, because I rarely buy stuff online or anything like that, its usually ok. But from now on I will be more careful. The ones I always try to keep an eye on are phone providers - I recently queried my bill and they were charging 1.86 per minute for one call (it wasn't a premium rate number, just to a foreign country).

i just seen it on my local news were a credit company had lost everyones account an it was stolen an they dont know when it was stolen..but whoever it was has everyone information has been useing peoples credits.an even useing it international,you can read it her on this news channel.look under finance link www.wishtv.com..but any way i always check my statements but i rarely use my credit cards..i hope you get your statement cleared up.i would hate to pay for someone else bills..

Actually I had a problem with a bank statement just recently. I made a deposit on the ATM machine and it wasn't showing. I had the receipt for the deposit which I don't always keep. I went to the bank and they found it and straightened it out. (3 days later) One of the people I talked to let it slip that there are often problems with ATM cash deposits so I made a mental note to make sure I always got a receipt at the ATM machine and that I always keep it just in case..

I regularly purchase through my creditr card so I always make it a point to check the statement and review it carefully. It is a known fact that there are mistake in the statement n i hv also found mistake many time. Then I hv to call up there Customer service department to correct this.

You should keep your credit card statements, checking/saving account statements and receipts for 7 years. If you should ever get audited by the IRS, and I hope you don't, you'll want and need these. For utility bills and phone bills, once you've received the most recent bill, and you don't have any issues regarding it, you can get rid of (preferably shred) the old bills.

we had that happen to us a few yrs back..someone had managed to get ahold of our C.Cds (one of them) and racked up over $500 on it!! My husband sorted it out with the bank and we got that money back etc and now though, we dont have C.Cds..LOL as much as I miss them, they are just too much of a pain in the rump IMO but ya ppl should definately go over their statements thoroughly for their C.Cds and their bank statement and even any online bank type things like Paypal IMO...there are some sneaky scam artists out htere and one really has to be careful...

Earlier was just having attitute to pay off whatever the credit card bill is by just checking online due amount. but since i have started checking creditcard statement carefully i have realized that lot of other charges are mixed and also credit card is free for life time but the bank is charging Rs 750 every year. Now i am very much careful.,

way back when I had a card 20 years ago or so. my x son in law got ahold of our card and made a $4,000 down payment on a truck with it dont know how he got ahold of our info sneaky b.....d. I fought with that card compnany fo ryears about it . I dont know if they ever found him or not but I havent had a card since

Not from an online site, but here's my story--last spring I was going to refi my home and I made the mistake of putting my name into one of those sites that promises no obligation calls. I started getting calls immediately, explained my situation and the first guy I spoke to offered me a great deal. I'm embarassed to say (but now I know better), but I agreed to give him my charge card # to start the process...but I was so overwhelmed that I forgot to note his name and number. A few days later, I get a call from another guy, thinking it's him and we worked out a deal that I felt comfortable with and we started the process. Then the calls from the appraisers start coming in...I'm getting confused, so I'm taking names and numbers. I call the guy I'm working with back and find out the name of the company that's to call me. They come and do the appraisal (actually it was 2 different ones because it was no doc)--no problem (or so I think). Then I get ANOTHER call...from company #1's appraiser! I tell him it's already done (2 or so weeks after the initial call) and he says he JUST got the call yesterday. I tell him no thanks and think that's it, until 2 days after that I receive a preliminary packet from BOTH companies. I called company #1 and tell them I'm refusing to be charged. The man who called me was rude and refused. I asked for his supervisor and HE refused. I understand that they need to be paid for their time, but after getting no service for 2 weeks and being in the dark, why should I pay for crappy customer service? I then disputed the charges in writing with my credit card company and two months later, I got my money back.

Yes i do check my statements every month and i was also facing the same problem few months back and still those transactions are under review, it happened as i paid online an amount of $1.95 but after 10 days again an amount of $49.95 was charged on my statement as i have not done that transaction which was a scam site and i was being scammed by that site, you can note down the site it was www.onlinesupplier.com so never pay any amount on this site as they keep on recuring the money and they dont give you service of the amount $1.95 what you have paid. so always be aware of your credit card statement.

I always check my statements also. I was charged for time on cell phones to the tune of $500. I reported it and it was removed. I filed a report with the police, just in case.

I did not but now i would. I ordered some trial subscription and later got billed. After much effort removed subscription.

i dont buy by credit card it is a big problem by credit cards nowa days

I always control my credit card statements but fortunatly for now I never find any fraudolent payment. I often use my credit card but I pay attention to use it only on protect site and I prefer use paypal to be more safey

yes my father really check the statements in a detailed way and make sure that no money is stolen

I know it is important to check your credit card statement or any bill for that matter but laziness and procrastrination are responsible for me never getting around to check them. But, yes, if the bill is abnormally high, I do go through it and check out what is responsible for the jump.

hmmm... thanks for this information. next time i will be more cautious in checking my billing statements. I hope this will not happen to me. =)

I always carefully check my credit card statement. As I use online banking I regularly check my credit card report during the month as well. I got one unusual charge for thing I bought online that I wasn't aware there is yearly renewal fee. But I manage to get refund from the company. But I try not to use credit cards at all. Actually I use them just for online purchases. Year ago I manage to get out of credit card debt and I'm debt free (except mortgage) since then. I don't plan to get in debt again. And credit card debt is one of the worst.
