You can also call us on 0345 600 5860 to suspend or remove your card from Apple Pay.
Lines are open 8am-8pm 7 days a week.
What should I do if I lose my card?
If you lose your card, please contact us immediately on 0345 600 5860.
If you have a credit card:
- your card will be stopped
- when we issue you with a new card, you won’t need to register it with Apple Pay again as your new card details will be updated automatically
- once your new card arrives, you should activate it as soon as possible to continue using Apple Pay
Lines are open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
What happens when I replace or update my device?
If you replace or update your device, you will need to add your card(s) to Wallet again.
Please ensure that you remove your card(s) from any device before selling, exchanging, or disposing of them. You should also remove your card if you temporarily pass your device to someone else; for example if you pass it to be repaired.

What happens when my card expires?
If your card is nearing expiry, a replacement card is automatically issued and the new card details are automatically updated in Apple Pay once you have activated your new card. If the expiry month has passed and you have not received a new card, you will need to contact our Lost & Stolen team.
Is Apple Pay secure?
Apple Pay is a secure way to make payments. With Apple Pay, instead of using your actual M&S Bank Credit Card numbers when you add your card, a unique Device Account Number is assigned, encrypted, and securely stored in the Secure Element, a dedicated chip in iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch. When you make a purchase, the Device Account Number, along with a transaction-specific dynamic security code, is used to process your payment so your actual credit card numbers are never shared by Apple with merchants or transmitted with payment.
To protect your card:
- you must not choose a device passcode that can be easily guessed by anyone else or tell anyone else what your device passcode is; and
- you must ensure that you do not store anyone else's fingerprint within your Apple Pay device.
I have been prompted for a one-time passcode. What is this and why is it required?
For security purposes, we may ask you to enter a one-time passcode to confirm your identity. This code is a unique series of numbers and/or letters and will be sent via email or text. If prompted, please select how you wish to receive the one-time passcode and then enter it into the appropriate field.
What should I do if I still have questions or need assistance with Apple Pay?
Please contact us on 0345 600 5860.
Lines are open 8am-8pm, 7 days a week.
