Blocking a small amount on a client's card is an opportunity to check the correctness of the information provided by him, which is used by many companies operating over the Internet. Agree, if you see that money was unjustifiably debited from your card, then you immediately contact the bank? If the money has not yet gone, but only blocked, then you will return it and replace the card, since, most likely, its data was compromised by fraudsters.

So, some online stores and financial organizations, when registering a buyer on the site, block a certain amount on his card, usually from $ 0.01 to $ 2. The amount is blocked for 30 days and later returned to the card. Sometimes foreign stores also block large amounts, the cost of purchases as a prepayment.

You can find out that a certain amount of money on the card has been blocked from the SMS message that will be sent to your phone as part of the mobile banking service, which is now required to be connected.

If several organizations have blocked funds on your card, you can find out the total amount of the blocking either through the online bank or by calling the support service.

As a rule, operators do not refuse to name the total amount of blocked funds on the card when confirming identification data.

It is not worth worrying about the blocked amount, as I said, after the expiration of the period set by the bank or organization, the money will automatically return to the card and will be available for use.
