If you are a Bank of Americard Visa Card holder be sure to check your emails today. We received notice this morning that our visa card account number has been changed - by Bank of Americard. There was no explanation as to 'why' this had been done - nor did the note indicate that our existing card would no longer work - nor that we would be receiving new cards in the mail. The email simply stated that the number had been changed and that 'we did not need to take any action'. Since the email was non-informative we called B of A. Evidently, there has been a security breech within a business that we have recently used, so, along with thousands of other customers, for security purposes B of A automatically changed the account numbers of all customers.

While this is quite an inconvenience - we have several automatic payments made through our charge card - We are pleased to know that B of A is prompt to take action in these cases. Unfortunately B of A will not tell us which business was involved. We have only used our card locally since being in TV - no on-line purchases either. Makes one wonder and a little nervous.
