Personal Finance

My son lives in a city several hundred miles away. He recently lost his wallet which contained his visa buxx card. I immediately set about having it replaced using their ‘express replacement’ option.

Because my son lives far away, I asked to have the fedex sent to his address rather than mine. This is an extra fee I was comfortable with: $20. In order to send the card to a different place I was told to send a fax including my signature, his address, my home phone number and the last four digits of my social. I did so on a wednesday night. I was told the card would arrive in “two to three business days”.
