Do I have to go to the bank to activate my credit card in person?
If the user applies for the first credit card, the bank requires the user to sign and activate it in person at the branch, and must do so in person. If you are an old customer, you can generally activate it through mobile banking, online banking, WeChat official account and other channels, and you don't have to go to the outlet to handle it. Therefore, whether credit cards should be activated for users at outlets mainly depends on whether users have applied for the first card.
How to activate a credit card
1. Call the credit card issuing bank to activate.
Now all major banks can handle credit card business. You need to know which bank you want to activate your credit card, then find the bank's 24-hour customer service hotline and follow the voice prompts after dialing. If you can't activate according to the voice prompts or encounter activation-related problems, you can ask manual customer service for consultation.
2. Login to the credit card bank to activate official website.
With the rapid development of Internet information technology, major banks have established their own official websites. In order to serve users conveniently, many banking businesses can be handled through official website, and credit card activation is also acceptable. Just log in to official website, the credit card issuing bank, and enter your ID card and bank card number to activate.
