Singapore woman says ex secretly booked travel with her credit card, then vanished when fee landed on her bill
She said the booking was made without her knowledge or permission, although the couple had previously shared some card details for convenience.
A Singaporean woman has accused her ex-boyfriend of secretly booking a backup travel reservation using her credit card after their relationship ended. She made the discovery when she spotted a charge for several hundred dollars on her credit card statement. The woman and her ex had previously shared some credit card details to facilitate payments and booking arrangements.
However, the ex allegedly used her card to make the backup booking as a contingency plan. He did not inform her about this particular transaction and she only found out about it two weeks later. Upon contacting her bank and the merchant, she learned that the charge was a penalty for a "no-show" fee from the backup booking. The ex admitted to making the booking but failed to cancel it in time.
The woman expected him to at least cover half the cost or reimburse her entirely since he made the booking. However, he never did and went silent after acknowledging the mistake. The woman sought advice from online forum users, who advised her to treat the incident as a lesson and end the relationship, warning others to avoid sharing financial information with ex-partners.
