TRAVEL TIPS - CREDIT CARDS

The Perspective received his travel documents with planning advice from the tour operator. One suggestion was to alert your credit card agency of your travel plans. Several years ago when the perspective was visiting family in Ohio, and doing some shopping, the store got a call from the credit card agency to verify who was making out of state charges. The Perspective was able to satisfy the inquiry and continued his travels without further incident. It was very gratifying to know that the credit card agency was diligent to protect against fraud. If you are planning any international travel, notifying your bank is even more important, as they could suspend your account due to out of the ordinary charges.
