Ah, but we are livid right now. My debit card expired last year. My parents, who are authorised for my bank account (thanks to the fact that I got it when I was yet a minor) have had the new one in their possession for close to half a year now. They keep finding excuses not to send it to me.
After a flurry of emails over two months ago they promised it would be in the mail within the next week.
I sent a few emails requesting where the hell it was, since I've received a package from my family since then, with the debit card strangely absent. Well, guess what? They haven't sent it yet.
Which is going to cost me a cool few hundred bucks, given that I made travel arrangements to pay for accomodation and transportation in American dollars, and I now have no choice but to pay the non-discount prices in yen that's been converted to Singapore dollars. Or, I suppose I could waste my money by converting my yen to USD and paying that way, but in either case, WTF? I'm so sick of my parents fucking around with my money behind my back.
That will be all.
