HI All,
Well we finally made it to Bali and thought I wouldn't have to post again till I did a JBR but I would love to know if anyone else out there has done what I've just done.
I use my credit card to withdraw cash from ATM's in Bali and after making a withdrawal I must have left it in the machine because when I next wanted to use my card a day later it wasn't there the thing is that they must have got my pin number or something I still can't work out whats happened but there's $2000 been withdrawn from my account since I last used my card.
I finally got to cancel my card after a hang of alot of hassle and thats when I found out money had been taken.
has anyone had this happen and if so can you tell me how the heck they could get my PIN number and if I left my card in the machine dosnt it swallow it?
I never use the card to pay for anything only use it in the ATM's

Please if anyone could give me some info that would be great I'm feeling real glum about it all.
Ta very much
Frazz
