My ATM card was ate by a machine. It kept it after telling me that the card was lost or stolen. This is new to me, especially since I was on the phone with the bank the night before making sure I was able to use it. Of course they assured me it was fine. Most Korean places do not accept foreign cards and I have to travel about 10 subway stops to get to an ATM that accepts my card. So now I am in Korea for two weeks with out any access to my money. My bank says they can't send a new card directly to me. So they will send it to my aunt in the states and she'll have to send it to me. Most convenient bank... I don't think so.

HA! i am also a victim of america's most convenient bank...since being abroad since last feb, i have had my card replaced FOUR times, usually about 2 - 3 weeks to get it back. you have to constantly call them & nag them because they will never contact you. the upside is in 1 year of being all over the world i have never been charged a service fee for any withdrawals or purchases. good luck, i sympathize lady.
