I'm one who prefers to use cash overseas. Whether that be AUD converted to local currency or using Wise to transfer to Thai bank account and withdrawing Thai baht.
I don't use credit cards often except where I think it's safe.
On 27 Aug I used 28 degrees to buy bacardi at BKK airport where the staff take card and scan and on 28 Aug used it at Tops supermarket where I tapped card.
On 02 Sep noticed 3 transactions from wish.com au for $35, $34 and $32. I don't think I've ever bought anything from them.
Call 28 Degrees last night. Limited access. Apparently those 3 transactions have been rejected but they're still showing on my account and balance gone. Card now cancelled and I'm not in Brisbane until 25 Sep.
I'm almost certain staff at King Power BKK took details of the card. I have other cards but that's not the point. I see no reason to stop using cash overseas.
