Answer 2

Call them and see what's up.  They may have sent one out already, it may have gotten lost in the mail, or it may have not reached you yet.  They may not even have sent one out at all.

If they sent one out a while ago, have them cancel that one and request a new one and make sure they have your current address.

Then stop by the bank in person and get some cash in the meantime (especially for the long holiday weekend).

Answer 3

Just relax, it's a debit card so unless someone happens to know your PIN they can't use it anyway.

Go to your bank and let them give you another one. Bring the old card with you, they'll cut it up in from of you and ask you from some ID. They'll just grab another card from their stock and ask you to go through a PIN selection process like you did the first time and you'll walk out with a new card.

In the even that they eventually send them one in the mail, cut that one up and mail it back to them, so they know that it's not needed.

Answer 4

Yes, go to your bank; if they sent it and you haven't received it, ask for a temporary one. Banks are so slow when it comes to getting you things in the mail. I'm dealing with a similar issue myself!

Answer 5

Go to your bank and tell them your situation. Ask them if they are supposed to automatically send you one or if you have to let them know. Then ask them how long it takes to receive.

Answer 6

Tell the bank immediately and get the card stopped, it will have been intercepted in the post and be in the hands of crooks now
