I do this with my debet card and it drives some people I know crazy. Its annoying only when there is shit signal.
I have had my debet card skimmed like twice in town. So now it stays frozen and people can deal with it.
depending on your bank, there might be an option to disable magstripe transactions, thats the shit that can be easily cloned. ive seperate cards for online vs physical.
i also run a magnet over the stripe, no chip/contactless (contactless set to ~$40 limit), no payment.
