I finally have a debit card again!!!


I accidentally shredded my new one when it came, thinking it belonged to an account we had just closed. Then suddenly while trying to purchase a $3 bag of chips at Walmart my card was denied! Then I noticed it had expired...so for like 2 weeks I've been without it! Couldn't buy a thing unless DH was with me! It's been just awful! I'm so happy now! I mean it's not like I go overboard when I shop or really use it all that often. It's just the fact that I couldn't!
I feel so much better!

Last week I noticed I had an unauthorized purchase from an online business debited from my account. I called the bank and cancelled that card and filed a fraud charge. I almost went nuts. I had a temp card but I had to go to the ATM then to the store anytime I wanted to buy anything.. Finally this morning my new card came and it was such a relief!

I guess I never realized how much I used the thing!

DH carries the checkbook so I either have the debit or credit card as I don't carry too much cash around!!

Oh my gosh I'd be furious! They could have called you!
