No, but if you do get impulsive and decide that you need the credit card right now for something and microwave it to melt the ice, that will mess the strip up.

I don't see why it would. That information is recorded magnetically, and magnetism isn't affected by temperature changes like that. Though, I think the bigger question is why the hell would you WANT to do that in the first place??
