Tank bag magnets - SV650.org

Anyone had any "bad" experiences with tank bag magnets affecting credit cards, mobile phones, etc?

Don't want to risk wiping my cards. Am I worrying unduly?

Cheers.

Don't need to worry about credit cards especially now they are chip and pin.

Well, they worked, i put them in my tank bag, they were 'stuck' on the bottom of my bag, they then didnt play, so not, it seems.
