Can you demagnetize the magnetic strip?
One source says:
"a card can be demagnetized when close to other magnets or electric motors that use electromagnetic forces such as loudspeakers. Inexpensive speakers with permanent magnets can also cause problems if near credit cards because their own magnetic field may affect the data on your card"
