3 years ago whilst in bali only used my visa to pay 2 bills at hotels and at atms. when i got back the correct amounts had been withdrawn from my account however--while in bali our friends card was cancelled due to illegal use of her card in Jakarta-they had not been there!! took 2 days for them to get replacement card. they had used their card at the same places as i had. therefore when i got home and checked my account to make sure there were no dodgy transactions and i was relieved---but----3 months later several amounts of about $200 each time were withdrawn from my account in Jakarta-at a supermarket!!!! had no worries with our bank as they realised quickly that i was not in Jakarta at the time!!!
the hotels where we used our cards are reputable and swiped our card in our presence so not sure what went on!!!
