Good morning, @742000.

 

Thank you for getting in touch.

 

To safeguard against potential fraudulent activities, our vigilant fraud team may place a "hot card" status on your account.

 

In such instances, you'll receive an SMS prompting you to verify any transactions that are flagged as suspicious.

 

Additionally, our system will make every effort to reach out to you directly for further validation of these transactions.

 

However, if you don't receive any communication as described above, please don't hesitate to contact our fraud team at 0800 222 050 (toll-free) to promptly unblock your card.

 

Should you need any further assistance with this matter, please feel free to let us know.

 

Kind regards,

Standard Bank Team
