So these are my complaining blogs... today because of the time difference in China my card kept on getting denied and they put a hold on it. And because it denied the card the ATM ate the card and wouldn't give it back to me. So when I went to get help they kept my card and said that I needed my passport to get it back. However, yesterday I surrendered my passport to police to obtain a residence permit which costs 460 rmb money I didn't have because all the stupid random fees that occur in the China.
SO passportless I can't get my debit card back. and the Bank was like "oh we only hold cards for like 4 days. I don't get my passport back until the 7th of October. So then I was talking to the teller lady (this was all in Chinese by the way) trying to explain to here why I didn't have my passport, trying to get her to accept my Drivers License instead, which she wouldn't. and I started crying in the middle of the Agriculture Bank of China....
so cross your fingers with me that they won't throw away my card until I am able to get my passport back. In the mean time I have no idear what i'm supposed to do for money I already owe Sarah the residence permit money that she lent me...
Grrrr and this was all before noon today.

Why don't you see if you can get a teacher or something to go back to the bank with you? Might be able to explain the circumstances more clearly. (This is Emily's suggestion.)
did you forget to tell the bank you were going to china? i hope things get better hun.
I did tell them I was going to China, and they said passport or nothing basically..
That sucks! You'd think they'd be a little more understanding. Hopefully everything works out right.
