Today, my wallet got stolen. I don't have a photo ID to get a temporary debit card, and since I don't have a debit card, I can't go to the DMV to get a new license. FML

I hope you at least got to freeze your bank account

I wonder how you figured out that pattern?

So sorry. Anyone that says you deserved this is a prick!!!

I lost my drivers license and debit card at a 5K one year. I was able to use my passport (which I had thankfully gotten the month before) to get my debit card (also nice because my bank prints them on the spot) and then was able to get my new drivers license. Turns out someone found my stuff and messaged me on Facebook but I didn't see it because Facebook moved that to some special hidden folder. I got them back a year later. xD

If you have a debit card, you have a bank account. Go to the bank and withdraw the cash to get a new license. Duh.

Do you have a friend or family member that is willing to loan you the money to get an ID?

Step one: borrow money from a friend to get a new license from the dmv. Step two: use said license to get the temporary debit card. Step three: pay friend back with aforementioned debit card.

If you have any other forms of id such as a passport or your birth certificate you should be ok to get a new debit card. Otherwise bring in any bank statements for that account/mail or bills with your name and address and your social insurance number and you can probably get it back.

You realize you can use your birth certificate/social security card. You only need 2 forms of identification. Same thing happened to me, only I lost mine. I just brought my SS card and birth certificate. If you don't have/lost those, then you have bigger problems.

your social and birth certificate would be proof enough
