How I handled the situation after losing my wallet in market 

Losing my wallet in a crowded market is one of the devastating experiences of my life. If you have also gone through this situation then you might understand the pain of losing wallet full of cash and credit cards. Actually when you lose your wallet or purse then you not only lose that stuff, but you also lose your hard earned cash, your debit cards, important contact details, credit cards and everything you put inside it. Well, this was bad experience indeed; let’s share the incident with you so that you can get some future guidelines.



I tried to find the wallet but…!!
After buying necessary items from the grocery store, when I put the hand in pocket for paying bill, then I got an extreme shock because there was no money and no wallet at all. I was completely stunned at that time, and then I thought that where I have gone previously, might be I have left it there. So I called at that restaurant but he was my good friend he denied that there is no wallet. Then I thought to provide a little description about my wallet to that grocery store in hope that may be he saw it. But all efforts were going badly in vain.

Is my wallet stolen?
After searching a lot, I finally assumed that my wallet has been stolen. So I immediately reported at police station about the cards stolen. They gave me 24 hours deadline. But I was quite worried that no one will ever return the money. L

How should I pay the bills?
The next daunting task was to pay the bills of items I have bought. I could not leave them, so I thought to borrow money from some person. But then I thought that who will provide money in that situation? My family and friends were living quite faraway, and it was quite embarrassing moment for me, so I simply thought to take payday loans within minutes by simply filling an online application form and can get the amount in short time period. Thanks God I had my check book at that desperate moment so that I easily cashed the amount after sometime.


Immediately report the incident:
After getting financial aid, I immediately reported the incident on all related banks about my credit cards and debit cards stole. Because sometimes it creates troubles for debit card holders if incident get unreported. But credit cards haven’t such strict policies; I thought to apply for a new credit card with that same account.

A memorable lesson:
After recalling the whole incident today, I still get pain of losing that wallet. And one thing I hide from you. Guess what? I have fixed a photo of my finance in the wallet J I don’t know who stole that, but I would request him to please do not misuse my personal items. Well that was a quite memorable lesson for me, and now I check my wallet several times in pocket after heading to the market.
