not wedding... ugh brother and fh

[EarlyBird]

Okay so the fact that my brother and Fh went to europe wasnt upsetting to me at all, i even took it well when they extended their trip by two days. however, at this point they are STUCK in europe and somehow i have been up since 5am trying to figure out how to restructure the money to get them home. You see in our joint account we just keep the amount we need for bills-- i have already paid everything this week so there isnt much in there, and mike's account that has his name only, he doesnt have an atm card (they never sent him a new one) and they told him he cant do a wire transfer into my brothers account. Then my brother had money at his house to deposit and when i went the bank they said it wont be available until TOMORROW (THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO LEAVE TONIGHT !!!!)
BASICALLY THIS REALLY SUCKS.. UGH off to my bank to try and figure it out. They are going to call him (Mike) and try to see how we can handle this, unfortantley they both have all this money that they cant get to cuz they dont have their banks there!!! Oh yah and the most important thing. this is all happening cuz 3 of his banks said there was FRAUD and shut off his credit card!!! (my brother, mike doesnt carry cc) So meanwhile my brother called them to correct the situaiton and they said "im sorry for the confusion, the replacement card is on its way to your house!" WOW my brother is flipping, as i would be too!

Aw! i'm sorry this is happening! :( i hope they are coming home safe.. That stinks!

OH NO!!!

Did they actually MISS their flight and they are making them pay for an upgrade???

Did they have fun???

[EarlyBird]

Yes they missed their flight but can get on another one in like 10 hours which isnt so bad, actually thats when i originally thought they were coming home. however, they couldnt leave without paying for their hotel bill (which the credit card company pulled back because they showed it as fraud)
I just put some money in the bank so hopefully everything pulls through and my boys can come home tomorrow. Personally im real mad at this point cuz i have stress and i didnt even get to enjoy europe cuz i didnt go!!! I need a vacation now :)

Sorry you had to stress over the boy's trip. Maybe they will bring you home a pressie for your trouble; one could hope at least ;)

hehe yes i have many presents from both of them according to them and my dad keeps saying "just stay calm until they land, then your boys can be home and you can go crazy on them from miami back to the house (its a 45 min drive) ) hehehe they may want to rethink me picking them up!!

They can call the CC company and explain that they are OOT!!! Happens to me every time I go out of the state!!!

Unfortuatley, the fool only has AMERICAN EXPRESS cards. i told him i was worried about this cuz i HATE my american express. they shut off my card anytime i use over 100.00 even though i tell them to stop. Anytime i buy anything over 500 they cancel my card and send me a new one automatically. i swear they are the worst company. He even purchased trip insurance through them telling me he was going to be out of the country... HELLLLLLO did they not write that down?!?!?!?!?
They told him since he card was cancelled they could not in any way reinstate a cancelled card, he would have to "wait" for the other card hahah!!! Poor guy, his luggage was also lost on the way there and he just got it yesterday (9 days later!!)
I hate to say it but maybe its KARMA for going without little sis/FW????????
