A lot of details have been left out of this post in order to protect the assets of one Abigail M. Schilling (NOT ABIGIAL SCHILLING, WHO IS SHE?)
"Hi, yes, I lost my cards."
"Your ... cards?"
"Yes, my debit cards. I lost them."
"Okay, do you have your account number?"
"No, oh wait, is that on my checks?"
"Uh ... yeah."
"Is it the first number or the second number? I mean I know one of them is the routing number, which one?" That's right, I know about routing numbers, I've seen Catch Me If You Can.
"Your account number is the second number."
"Okay, its ********************."
"Alright, I will put a stop on that card."
"There were two."
"You lost both cards?"
"Yes, and I also I'd like new ones. And also, my name was spelled wrong on one of the cards so I'd like that fixed also."
"Okay, I'm going to need you to verify some information. What's your social?"
"***-**-****."
"And your address?"
"***** **** **
** ****** ** *****."
"Okay, and where does your direct deposit come from?"
"***** *********."
"Alright, I will get the new card...dz sent to you with ... the correct spelling of your name?"
"Yes, thank you I would appreciate that."
And by the way, I lost card no. 1 (with the right name) in November when we saw Harry Potter. I lost card no. 2 (with the wrong name) at least two weeks ago. Why haven't I done anything about it until now? BECAUSE THERE HASN'T BEEN ANYTHING IN MY BANK ACCOUNT. T minus 24 hours until we have successfully cleared the "transitional time." Who wants to party?
Comments
Halfway through the blog, I knew I was going to comment about the length of time said cards were lost. So scary, Abigail! Even though there's no money in your account, they can still charge and you get stuck with the overdraft fees! So, now is it time to get a wallet??

I was going to mention your having lost a card a couple months ago with no reminding. Maybe you could get GPS set up on your cards. That would come in handy. :)
I wonder who finds them? Certainly someone would be coming across them somewhere, no?

You know where you should put your cards? In your planner. Not only is the planner the key to organization, it makes you look cool. And who would lose something that makes you look cool?
Me.

abigail? PLANNER? ha
seriously though, we should have gutted the green monster couch before selling it to those boys. i bet card #1 was lurking in there somewhere, and now the boys are using it flambouyantly because they're pissed off that they paid actual money for that piece of crap card eating couch.
