Not able to contact the bank

Today is a holiday, Martin Luther King day. So, although I have the day off, no one is at the bank. For those not in the know it is because of a malfunction on my debit card. I have pinned down where the problem likely originated, which cash register. Funny thing, two or more years ago hubby had a debit card from our other bank account get compromised in the same general location. There is a filling station, convenience store and a Subway restaurant all in one connected set up. I used my debit card on Friday at the Subway when Jane and I went and visited and ordered meals. She always orders in the app and pays online. I do not. This little group of businesses is right across the street and in the general neighborhood of a small, private college. I wonder if that makes it more vulnerable, or if not very ethical college students have anything to do with it. I would not think so, it is a Christian college. Anyway, I will be talking to the bank tomorrow, while I wait for Bob and his stress test at the cardiologist.

I hate to be cynical but I wonder if a Christian college would be much different to any other. Certainly here it wouldn't be much as we might like to think it would be.

I think a lot of people forgot it was a holiday today. George was complaining about kids being off school because there were no school busses to look at.

It happens so often now all the fraud it is so upsetting. I hope you are able to be issues a new card and stop or reverse any transactions which may be fraudulent.

I hope you can get it straightened out without too many issues. Sorry you're dealing with that at all.

I didn't even think about the holiday when you mentioned calling them

Thanks for reminding me about MLK day, I totally forgot about it I prefer to do things online because it seems to be much safer that way. If you have online banking you could check if anyone has tried to use your card and if so you can lodge a dispute.
