Ask your friends or famly for some money to get you by until you get your money back - don't use the credit cards.

you usually get 55 days interest free? so what's the problem (unless you spend too much)

Damn that sucks

that sucksss =(

you clearly dont know how a credit card works...they only charge you interest if you dont pay by the due date

To #22 and the other ridiculously judgmental commenters...the OP had his ENTIRE ACCOUNT wiped out, not just his last paycheck. And even if that was the case, it's not like everyone has the luxury of savings to that degree. Some people live paycheck to paycheck out of necessity, not because they overspend. Would you rather them quit their lower-paying jobs and live off the government (=your tax dollars)? I didn't think so. You have no idea how the other half lives...FYL.

LOL @ #7 and yea you don't pay interest unless you don't pay in full in 30 days

I'm sorry to hear that his account was cleared.... but once again, what stops OP from having 2 accounts? One account with a card, one with just savings? Banks are there for YOU to use them, not the other way around. Take advantage of what the banks offer, especially the free stuff. You know they want to make money off of you, so make them WORK for it! Bash me all you want ppl, but I think this could have been avoided.

That's ****** up!

Find a new bank. Doesn't help your current problem but will certainly be better for your future. You may be able to find another bank that will give you a small unrestricted loan. The interest on bank loans is so much lower than credit cards its not even funny.
