Question: What if my child has lost their card, but then finds it after a new card has been ordered
If the replacement card has been ordered via the app, then you can re-activate the existing card. To do this tap Card underneath your Child's tile on the Family Dashboard and toggle on Card active.
The replacement card will still be dispatched and you will see the option to Activate the new card when it arrives, however, until the new card turns up, your Child will still be able to use their existing one.
Question: I need to change my address, will you re-run the security checks?
Yes. We will need to re-run the address checks to confirm that you are registered at your new address. For most customers, these checks will be approved instantly, however, if the move is recent or if your new home is a new built house, these checks may fail and we will need to reach out to you to get an updated Proof of Address document.
Question: I'm the additional guardian on the account, but I don't have the option to order a card in the app, how do I order a new card?
