      Hi bro,
      I you don’t use ur card for 6 months consecutive then it will be considered as in active. So once you withdraw the amount if you have linked ur sbi forex card with your sbi account then u can go online banking and cancel or freeze the card.
      Otherwise u can send a mail to the bank manager and ask him to freeze the card.
      Or you can send someone in India to the bank to ask them to freeze or cancel the card.

      Usually international debit card has charges for every transaction u do in foreign currency. Forex card have the currency in pounds so u won’t have any charges for that. Check with ur bank for the charges of using an international card in UK. If there is charges for every transaction online or swiping then it will cost u more.
