which of the statements about a reported lost or stolen travel card is true

The true statement about a reported lost or stolen travel card is that the cardholder is responsible for authorized charges made before losing the card. This means any transactions authorized before the card was reported lost or stolen remain the responsibility of the cardholder. Other statements, such as the old account remaining open until the new card is received or the travel card vendor issuing a new card within a specific timeframe, may not necessarily be true or universally applicable. Additionally, unauthorized charges after the card is reported lost or stolen are typically not the cardholder's responsibility once the card issuer is notified. Therefore, the key truth is the cardholder's responsibility for authorized charges prior to the loss or theft report.
