Cash Passport card

Same here!  Barclays and Egg have both frozen our cards when abroad multiple times - despite advanced warning and the fact that we're nearly almost always in the SAME PLACE - Athens, Georgia - information which is in the freaking computer at Barclays as it's my previous address!!

That reminds me, must call banks before next week's trip.  Even if it probably won't make any difference.

Garg! Had the same thing happen. Both mine and hubby's cards got frozen while we were in Italy by Barclays and when we called we got the snootiest lecture on notifying them of our travel plans. As soon as I could get a word in I asked him to take a look at our account where it SAID THAT WE WERE TRAVELING TO ITALY THAT WEEK. Oops!

So they reactivated our cards then shut them down again after we used them twice and then kept shutting them down DAILY for a whole week after we got back to the U.K. I'd call, they'd reactivate. I'd try to use it. On the second attempt it'd get declined. *throws things*
