Oh yesAmex was the best... "We have noted your stolen cards but can't do anything because our system is down".
I have learned my lesson. Never take valuable things out with you when you know you won't need them.

I find it difficult to use my Amex card myselfdue to their paranoid security so I doubt very much whether anyone else will have much luck spending anything over a few rand.

Could you pass yourself off as a "Wendy"?Cos you don't look like one to me. Not at all :)
Aah feck it. It's a bloody nuisance but everything is replacable and I had little money in there due to my being fed and watered to my heart's content while I am working.

It's a pain in the arse.I had my wallet stolen from a party some years back ( turned out to be the hosts brother, but it's a long story and will teach me for leaving my pants on the floor outside a bedroom I never should have been sleeping in ;))
Only had about £200 in it but the pain in the arse was cards and driving license etc.
Funnily enough I had a new gold card from MBNA that I'd just upped to a £30k limit ( to cover costs on a large job I'd just started ) and some dickhead got caught the other side of Manchester buying £20 worth of petrol and a newspaper. Epic failthief.
Real trouble was being back in London, having to deal with Manchester police via Hammersmith police and remembering what lies I had previously told when discussing it with the wife ;)
I've still not replaced my driving license to this day.

It's amazing how many thieves are stupidI heard a similar story last week.
A customer of mine was held up at gunpoint (!) and had everything stolen. The very next day a woman tried to use the credit card in our local shopping centre, bought something small in a shop and the card went through (probably under the floor limit). After that purchase, she said "OK, I would like an IPod, that camera and that laptop please. Hahahaha.
The assistant was very suspicious and when she went to the back, pretending to fetch the stock, she phoned the credit card company who confirmed the card was stolen, then phoned the police who arrived 2 minutes later and arrested the stupid woman.
"African Justice" meant that after being in the police station for 5 minutes she gave the name of the armed muggers, one of whom was her brother.
