You should activate your card as soon as you receive it. If you wait more than a month or two, the bank may assume that the card is lost and cancel it.
Try to use the same phone number that you put on your credit card application. To prevent identity theft, the bank may compare the number you are calling from with the number on your application.
Personal identifying questions may include “What is your mother’s maiden name” or “What was the street you grew up on?” If you are calling from a different number than the one on your application, you may be asked more questions for security purposes.
If you can’t remember which number you used, visit a bank. If the bank flags your card, you may need to get a new one. Visit your bank or call customer service if you suspect this to be the case.
