You can check your VCARD's available balance and complete transaction history online, at any time, free of charge. Click on the MY VCARD tab and follow the applicable prompts.
You can also check your available balance by phone by calling 1800 204 968 or +1 866 218 3947 if you are calling from outside Australia. Phone charges apply.
We suggest that you check your available balance from time to time to ensure that you don't make purchases or withdrawals that exceed your available balance.

|
If you have any concerns about a transaction on your VCARD, you should always contact the merchant directly to resolve the issue.
If you are unable to resolve the issue with the merchant you can complete a disputed transaction form found at MY VCARD or phone 24 Hour Customer Assistance on 1800 204 968. Phone charges apply.
|
|
|
If you attempt to use your VCARD for a transaction that is greater than the remaining available balance - the transaction will be declined.
|
|
|
|
Should your VCARD be declined, most likely your available balance is less than the amount of the transaction. If you believe there is an issue with your VCARD's available balance (once you have checked your balance on the website) then you may contact 24 Hour Customer Assistance on 1800 204 968 or +1 866 218 3947 if you are calling from outside Australia. Phone charges apply.
