Yep, I was a bozo. After working on a table at Starbucks ground floor Emporium today I had to rush off and packed up my laptop, leaving my Barclays ATM card inside the PIN machine (looks like a mini blue and white calculator) on the table or chair. I've only just realised and it's obviously closed now.

I'll go there tomorrow morning and just pray someone has handed it in to the staff there (hopefully honest staff) and I can get it back and access my lifeline again.

I know it's a fat chance, but if anyone on TV was there and saw it, please let me know. Small table near newspaper rack.

Cheers.

You never know, it may be waiting for you at Starbucks. There ARE some honest people left in the world. Take your passport (for ID) just in case.

Carl, sorry to hear that you have succumbed to the "I'm in Bangkok, I must rush to do everything" disease. I sincerely hope that GOM did not spy you in Starbucks. I am confident that you will retrieve your card tomorrow as those that patronise Starbucks are usually wealthy enough not to need someone elses ATM card, (despite their obvious bad taste when it comes to coffee). Good luck mate!

What's a PIN machine ?

Good on the Starbucks staff - they found it and kept it back for me, friend went in the following morning to get it for me and they asked all the right questions before giving it to her. All is well.

What's a PIN machine ?

A small device with an algorithm stored on it to generate PINs to access online banking.
