I lost my fvcking wallet! I've no idea where it is at. No activity on any cards, and I've searched the house and car as well as anyone can do. I can only assume I left it at this bar we were at. I plan to contact them tommorrow. It would have been lost Saturday night, and I just noticed earlier.

I've still got my passport and a couple of Credit Cards, but no more Debit Card and all my other CCs are in it too. I really fvcked myself. I can only think I'm going to have to go get a new Driver License and CCs, but I I won't have time for it to really matter. Fvck me. :(

Call all related banks, tell them what's happening, ask them to overnight you a debit card (if you plan on using it overseas) and tell them to put a freeze on all the lost CCs and tell them NOT to send you cards yet. You can call them later and get your cards. You won't be needing a driver's license abroad, so if you think you can get away with driving without one, you should try that. As long as you have your passport, you're good to fly. Make redundant copies of that so you can use it since you won't have any other form of ID.
If you've done all this, all I can offer you is sympathy and :beer:.

He'll need the license to get on the plane though. Unless they'll take just the passport.

~~edit... a quick search makes it look like they'll take JUST the passprot, but you'll probably want to call the airline...

Assuming you're not driving where you're travelling, you should be good..

Otherwise, hussle yer butt down to your nearest DMV and get some sort of replacement..

You don't need a DL, just the passport. I'd still like to have a backup form of ID, though. Better safe that sorry.

I lost my wallet vacationing in NYC and never found it. I was sadly made aware of the fact that no ID is actually required to get on the plane, they just flag you for a search.

Forgot your back pocket, eh?

No, it fell underneath my dresser (and I looked there 70 times), but a lone sock was hiding it.

Only a man would look under his dresser seventy times, see a sock, and leave it there. "It ain't harmin' nothin'"

Good job! :thumbsup:
