If somebody knew all my bank details, knew how much I had in there and knew my security passwordWhat exactly could they do?They dont however know my cards CVC number and expiry dateJust want to protect myself
if u got p in there they would transfer it to another persons account and withdraw it

By phone?Will my bank not need the full card details attached to my bank?True they could pretend to be me and activate online banking...

The only way to insulate yourself from this, is putting your money into a savings account that needs a SEPERATE password to set up a new transfer. I don't know if all banks do this but I know with Halifax & Natwest you need to enter additional security details to create a new transfer. This isn't 100% foolproof but just another layer that frustrates the fraudsters when trying.As for getting your money back, the banks are starting to take a tough line on victims. If they believe you were negligent with your password they aint trying to give you your money back.
