April to now ???????? I had a friend go through similar, ..received card after 4 months. however on the 3 month mark he was sent mail that said if he didnt activate his card ( the one that was still in the mail) his card would be blocked by said bank. So one month later his duly blocked card arrived. I was aware of the issue with cards being blocked if not activated in time, so I called my UK bank towards the end of the 3 months and advised them. They cancelled the card and re-sent another - it arrived within the 3 month time-frame luckily. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
graham59 Posted March 2, 2021 Posted March 2, 2021 (edited) I had my new debit card sent to my son in the UK, then activated it. He posted it on to a friend of my Mrs, who kindly put it in her Balikbayan box, and 2 months later, the Mrs collected it from a (friend's) house just up the road here. Now in my wallet.

Snowy79 Posted March 3, 2021 Posted March 3, 2021 I'd say 99% of my transactions are done online using my cards so I got my son to erase the security code on the rear of my cards and give me the details in seperate messages. He then activated it for me and has posted it out. It can take as long as it wants. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
