everyone elses was declined because they had already terminated it, or because their bank noticed the pattern and terminated it for them, or the validation check triggered a fraud block on your account
i guess you got unlucky

Weird, Carlo hasn’t been back to tell you all it’s not Lyca

I mean he had a point, it’s just so unlikely when you look at the odds now

Just had a declined transaction come through on my old card from a Jewellery store in the USA
Same, “Jewelry Unlimited”, and previously one from “Brain Anew”.
Former Lyca customer (didn’t even get to activate the Esim because I signed up a day before they got hacked then couldn’t get into the account page to switch to a physical sim).
Spoke to monzo, it wasn’t attempted against the card I created and then deleted 13th June solely to use with Lyca.
It was on my previous card before I got a Monzo Max card. That card had never been used for Lyca, as it was only issued June 2023.
The last Lyca transaction before that was March 2023 with monzo and id changed two card prior to that.
Sadly its not a simple process to see which transactions solely relate to the card in question, unlike revolut where you can view all transactions for a certain card.
So no relation to Lyca with this one.

It is very annoying that you can’t filter your transaction history by virtual card

I have had twice over the last couple of weeks. Both US companies. One a carpet store and another a games store. It is very hard to do anything with it. The app doesn’t let you challenge the transaction as there are no funds involved. The ability to chat to anyone at Monzo has gone. The only option is to call.I have frozen the account for a couple of days each time, but didn’t want to order a new card as I haven’t had this one long.
Just order a new card. This is the reason ordering a new card exists.
Even if support or you block these companies, the fraudsters will just use your details somewhere else.
I’ve just been having the same issue, but again, it seems to be down to when Lyca Mobile was hacked last year. Luckily it was on my virtual card (which so far I have only used with Lyca Mobile, therefore making it easier to narrow down) so I just deleted it and setup a new one - Still, it’s really annoying to see these companies taking a chance and checking if the card is still active 
Sure is. I had two yesterday

Still going on… just got one from ‘Immortal Laces’ on the dead card.
It does seem the fraudsters won’t give up even though they must know the card issuers have caught on and blocked the numbers.

You can disable the notifications for expired cards. So perhaps you should. Out of sight, out of mind.
At first I was curious how long it would go on but now I’m just annoyed so I’ve disabled them.
I just had a Shopify active card check too. (Not a Lyca user). I’ve frozen my card, but should I order a new one? About to go on holiday which complicates things.
Definitely order a new one. I was stung and lost money. It wasn’t a lot and it was refunded but I’ve had various attempts on the compromised card since it’s been cancelled.
Do you have another card (flex or maybe joint) or another account you can use on holiday?
Yes, I do. Should I report it as fraud even though no money has been taken? I’m more worried about having my new card sat on the door mat for a week…

I’m no expert but I’d cancel the card and leave it at that.
If you get more attempts on the cancelled card you can disable notifications. At first I was curious but then it just got annoying.

Weird I had the Shopify Active Card Check today as well! It was on a virtual card I use for some subscriptions so I’ve deleted it and I’m waiting to see what happens next.
