February 23, 2008

The Medical/Dental team arrived today. We picked up about half of them (there were ~ 50 people on the team) in the afternoon and then had to go back to airport that evening to pick up the rest. When the team arrived that evening and we got up from the table to greet them Cindy realized her purse had been stolen. She had it sitting on the floor, under her seat, and between her legs. Everything was in it: debit card, driver’s licenses, money, etc.

When we got back to Faith Home about an hour later we called our banks to let them know what had happened. We checked our accounts online and they had already charges $89 at a gas station on our credit card. We later found out they also charged $180 on our debit card at another gas station.

Trying to deal with banks in the states from another country in a situation like this is not the most enjoyable experience. Thank goodness for Skype. We must say that Integra Bank was just wonderful to deal with. Absolutely wonderful. Don’t think they could have been any more helpful.
