But a lot of cards now have another security level so that you have to enter a password if using on line.

He does...in fact he is under obligation to do so if no one reclaims the card within the same working day.
I'm with a majority of people on here. The store manager was being responsible...shame that wasn't the case for everyone!

Indeed, verified by MasterCard or some such where you have to enter the answer to random letters of your security word.

I buy a lot over the phone and have asked if I can have it delivered to say a customers address, but always told they can only deliver to the card holders address only.

So you have left a card in Tesco & your wife has left one in Aldi, you sound like a match made in incompetence & ignorance

But if it was taken and the account emptyed, what would you be saying?
I feel that I need to try this now, if only to check what reaction I recieve. A poll might be interesting!
So, one or two shiners?
Just asked and she said "it's really patronizing and the sort of term a rugger bugger would use."
I'm awaiting the inevitable Ernest credit-card spending spree post.

But the card holder doesn't own the card either, it belongs to the bank and the bank would ask that the card is shredded (or at least cut in half) and sent to them to prevent fraudulent use. As soon as you realise you don't have the card you are supposed to contact the bank and cancel the card (again to prevent fraud) according to the bank and your t's & c's so it shouldn't matter that the store manager destroyed it (as the bank would have wanted) so I think that legally the store manager hasn't done anything wrong

But it could have still been used by a customer or by a member of staff first or possibly even cloned before it was passed onto the store manager, hence why it should be cancelled.
You would be amased how many people fail to cover their pin number when entering iut in supermarkets and other retail outlets, someone else in the queue could have seen what it was and could easily have used it.

In legal terms I think this falls under "involuntary bailment" - Involuntary bailment is a type of bailment that arises when a person accidentally, but without any negligence, leaves personal property in another's possession. It happens when a person comes into possession of property accidentally or mistakenly. For example, where a lost purse or car keys are found and need to be protected until properly redelivered. An involuntary bailee who refuses to return the property to the owner can be liable for conversion.
Does "conversion" mean being kicked between the posts, a la egg chasers?

Actually, Vegas is perfect in every way, and a genuinely wonderful person, he always thinks of others before himself and has an enormous amount of patience and sympathy for those less fortunate than himself (which by all accounts is everyone else).
