normally credit cards are not activated til you call the number they give you to activate it. Seems odd that they have already linked it to your savings account without you applying for the card in order to give them such detail. Are you sure someone else in your home didn't apply for the cards? Does anyone you know happen to know your bank info? I would call your bank and ask them to take the information out of your savings account and then call the bank that sent it (if it's not the same bank) then cut it into many pieces. Better safe then sorry. |

If you did not ask for them,you don't have to accept them.Cut the cards in half and return them.Write a short note telling them that you want the account closed.Thank you. |

If they have the exact same numbers on the front and on the back of the card. I would keep it. When you activate it. You will be able to use both cards. This way if one get worn out. You can use the other one. Yes the will debit the annual charge even if you don't use them. Just keep an eye that they could double charge the annual fee. If they are different numbers. Take it or call the bank and tell them to close one. |

Well its better u write to the bank to inform them your deciding to cancel the card and return it together with your letter then there will be no annual charge incurred. Also, you can tell the bank that u already had other credit cards and do not need so many cards unless the card is free and the bank will not charge the annual fee. The card can only be activated once u call the bank to let them know your intention to use it..... |

you should call the bank, there's probably a number on the letter that came with the card(s)....and talk to Customer Service.
get them to cancel the cards.
then you cut the cards into pieces. |

It sounds like these are debit, rather than credit cards if they're linked to your savings account.
Check with the bank about how to cancel these cards and get a regular ATM card. It might be a better idea to walk into a branch of the bank, rather than trying to deal with the bank over the phone.
In any event, don't assume that you can simply cut the cards in two and never use them. If the bank issued them, the bank will probably try to charge you a fee for issuing them. |

usually it is recommended to cut them in 2 or more pieces across the magnetic strip. |

Go to the bank and get this straightened out asap. Tell them you don't want to get credit cards sent to you under any circumstances or you will take your business elsewhere. This is ridiculous. |
