HSBC Credit Card security:

HSBC make every effort to protect your cards against fraudulent use, and with a few precautions of your own, you'll be able to increase your card security still further – and enjoy peace of mind. Here are a few things you should know:

• - Fraud detection system – our state of the art technology will look for any unusual activity on your account in order to protect you from fraud.
• - MasterCard® SecureCode™ – register for a private code which gives you added protection against unauthorised use of your card when you shop at participating online merchants.
• - Zero online fraud liability – if you are a victim of online fraud, you won't have to pay for any online transactions undertaken without your authority.
• - Global assistance – if you lose your card, we'll get you a new one in 24 hours, and can get you an emergency cash advance in 4 hours.
• - Chip and PIN technology – a more secure way to pay with credit or debit cards in the UK. Instead of using your signature to verify payments, you will be asked to enter a four-digit Personal Identification Number (PIN) known only to you.
