August 20, 2010, Newsletter Issue #134: Work swiftly to avoid having your credit card application time out

Tip of the Week

When you sit down to your computer to fill out a credit card application, make sure you are able to complete the application swiftly. Online credit application sites have a built in security feature that causes your credit card application session to log you out automatically if you've been inactive for a period of time. This helps protect you against information theft. To further protect yourself, make sure that you never leave a computer where your personal credit card application information is on the screen.

Everyone needs help with credit card applications online. In order to prevent the loss of information being provided over the Internet by filling in an online credit card application, the applicant must complete it in a timely manner. If not, the credit card application has a built in security feature that will automatically time out the application due to inactivity. This is a protective measure that will prevent others from seeing the information typed into the application sitting on the computer. It also protects the applicant from others accessing the information via spy ware applications and other such hacker programs. Therefore, once an applicant sits down to fill in the online application they need to complete it in a timely manner and submit it as quickly as possible to prevent the credit card application from timing out. Also, a person should never walk away from their computer and leave their personal information on the screen because it leaves them to be very vulnerable in the event someone gets it.
