Er... today... I made a blunder.
I've BLOCKED my credit caaaaaard!
And it totemo sucks XD
OK, I explain the situation.
In France, I have a credit card and to use it, I have to type 4 digits.
But... I also have a British debit card and surprisingly, it's the same digits as my French card but in another order.
Few days ago, I had troubles remembering my code while buying my X'mas presents but when I tried on a cash machine, I saw I could choose different amounts to withdraw but I didn't pick any thinking it was OK, I had remembered my code.
But obviously, that wasn't the case.
I guess that if I had chosen an amount, that would have been refused.
And today, I had to take the train to met another cousin in Paris.
I insert my card that I hadn't use it since my little "incident", I type my code.
Of course, my payment was refused, no train tickets, nothing and I was alone.
This time, I didn't have my check book on me (I hate check books).
The only solution was to go back home, take my checkbook and to return to the train station.
In the end, I decided not to go because it wasn't really worth it if it was to spend only few hours with my cousin.
I'll go there on the next Saturday instead, to spend the whole day with her.
That'll be the occasion to see/buy the newest issues of Potato, Duet and Wink Up.
Stuff to do tomorrow: go to my bank!
Cause it's closed on Monday.
I hope it can be easily reactivated without changing the pin number, the card or waiting for 2 weeks!
Mado, j'ai trop pensé à toi quand j'ai fait cette connerie parce que je sais que t'es comme moi, plein de cash dans le sac c'est pas top, tu fais marcher que la CB et que t'utilises jamais le chéquier XD

J'espère que ça s'est résolu!!! Je serais perdue dans la même situation, car comme tu l'as si bien dit: j'ai jamais de cash sur moi ni de chéquier!

Date: 2009-01-01 09:46 pm (UTC)J'aurai pas mon code avant lundi ou mardi alors que j'en ai besoin avant, c'est l'horreur totale, va falloir que je prenne mon carnet de chèque et on va sûrement me le voler, je vais le perdre, je vais écrire au crayon à papier dessus, une merde comme ça XD
Donc en gros, ma banque va me renvoyer un nouveau code par la poste, je vais devoir en mémoriser un nouveau.
Au moins je la change pas, c'est déjà ça.
