does the wallet prevent electronic credit card "theft"?
899911
I bought one summer of 2-13, am using it, like it.... but there is no way for me to tell if it actually really prevents me from being "electronically hacked". I can say it looks very unique. My 33 year old daughter, who isn't impressed by much, commented "wow dad, that looks pretty cool, what kind of wallet is that?!"

Hmm good question. I haven't lost any yet. My first answer would be I don't think so-but Ian going to investigate. It's good size slot so diy coins could be an option.

I don't use it for credit cards.But the magnet is not very big,so it shouldn't effect it.

It has never affected any of my credit or check cards...I have an iPhone. I have used it for over a year.

Good question; but as a happy user of this wallet, there's no risk of damaging your card. The magnet is at the very top, away from the card space, and you'd have to put some effort into trying to actually damage your card for any damage to occur. I've been using this case/wallet since it's launch, and I've yet to damage any of my (8) cards.. I wouldn't put anything at the card opening at the back though, it's a bit too tight. Hope this helps..

The case is on very secure but I have not had the opportunity to take mine off. However, I have heard from other forums that you can use an old credit card or one of those savings keyring fobs and place it between the case and the computer and gently pry it off.

It has not given me any trouble with the 2 cards (and Drivers License) that I keep in there 24/7. And they are the credit cards that I use for almost everything - so I'd know if the magnet was causing them trouble :)

Absolutely not. The case is well made...holds 3 credit cards without any problem at all. For the price, you can't beat it.

I have not had any issues with my debit/ credit cards. I typically put my license in front of debit card and another non-magnetic strip ID on the other side closest to the magnet. So far, so good.

according to this, as long as the magnet is 1 inch away from the magnetic strip, it should be ok. I just opened my wallet and checked, if you place the card in the card slot so the magnetic strip is farther rather than close to the magnet, its about an inch away. I don't think that it will destroy the cards. http://www.creditcards.com/credit-card-news/demagnetization-ruin-credit-card-magnetic-stripe-1273.php

In my opinion, no; not unless you are comfortable with a very thick wallet. My husband does have something similar that we got years ago (from a drug store, if I remember correctly) that truly is the size and thickness of a credit card. I have found these difficult to find again. It has a very small reading "window" compared to the Mighty Bright, which we find more useful overall.

Key , yes. Credit card, I don't think so; but you maybe able to fit that behind your phone when you put it in the pocket.

I have my credit cards in the sleeves I bought..... have no idea whether or not they work because I do not know if anyone has tried to access the information. But...hopefully the sleeves work. I will only know if they do not work if someone accesses the information while the card is in the sleeve. And I sure hope this does not happen.

Nothing most likely, you honestly can use a piece of foil in your wallet walls. I like the product but also use foil for double protection.

Nope. It does affect my work id. Demagnetized when I would pin it with it but I stopped doing that. Credit cards are safe

it hasn't deactivated my credit cards. I've been using this phone case for months - I don't need a wallet any more.

I carry 1 extra id card in where I keep my cash & only put $20 in there since I use mainly my credit card for purchases. Sometimes I do put $40 & it fits nicely. No problem with the magnet holding it close :D
