          What if I'm asked for my Tesco Bank Online Banking security details?

          Once you've registered, we'll never ask for all your security details when we contact you.

          If you ever receive a request for all of your details at any time (by email or otherwise), don't give them out and report it to us straight away by emailing phishing@tescobank.com.

          You'll never be asked for your security details or your PIN by online retailers, so you should never disclose them, even to the police or other security agency.
