There must be no arrears in the account when returning the card, and in order to ensure the security of the account, the card must be with you when returning the card over the phone.

How to restore a credit card after it is deactivated?
1. Timely repayment: After the use of a credit card is suspended, the first thing to do is to pay off all outstanding balances on the credit card, regardless of whether the credit card is used, otherwise it will affect your credit report.
2. Communicate with the bank: After making timely repayment, you can call the credit card center customer service and communicate with the credit card customer service to explain the reason for failure to repay on time to ensure that it will not happen again in the future.
3. Apply for unblocking: After paying off the credit card debt, you can also go to the bank where the credit card is located with the corresponding information. This is faster than calling the credit card center. You still need to pay attention to your strong intention and importance of repayment, as well as the reasons for your non-repayment, etc.
