A few weeks ago, Mr. Abby and I were the victims of online fraudsters. I noticed a bogus charge on our debit card. Fortunately, we have the World's Greatest Bank, and they fixed the problem instantly. Returned the 74.95, canceled the card, put the smack down on the fraudsters.
Problem is, we then needed NEW CARDS.
Which has taken TIME. The cards finally showed up in the mail early this week, but NO PIN numbers. Grrr... Now, while this has been going on, we've been either operating:
A) Out of the account in Florida to which my pay is deposited. As most of you know, I'm currently not WORKING, so nobody is depositing any pay there. It's not much of an account
B) With checks from the other bank. Not very many places take checks these days. Try writing a check at your local urban gas station. Good luck with that.
C) By depositing checks from the useful bank into the Florida bank. This worked, but it was a giant pain in the ass.
Today the PINs showed up! Yea! We can spend the money we have and it's not an eight-step process.
Happy happy happy!
