All of my cards that didn't have chip and pin have been being updated and sent in the last few weeks. Combined with the usual holiday mail prowelers, I'm like, dang, terrible timing for this mass update banks.... My mailbox used to get regularly targeted by theives as well as vandilzation.


You're lucky. I just now received 2 replacement cards with chip (both of my Sallie Mae cards). That leaves me with 8 cards out of 16 that still have no chip:

 

US Bank Cash+ X 2, FNBO Savingstar, FNBO 6.25%, Barclay Priceline, Chase Freedom, BBVA Compass NBA, NASA FCU Platinum rewards.

 

Those last 2 cards I applied for in September, and they still came with no chip.

 

Would you like chips with that? Yes, yes I would...

I totally feel you. I hate waiting for new plastic in the mail cause I get paranoid it will get stolen out of my mail box. My box is at the end of my driveway. So anyone can just walk by and take something out. Luckily I've never had an issue.

Well, maybe with CCs.  But who knows what great other stuff might have been taken!

Cash+ has a chipped version available. I have the PC'd version in the EMV Chip version, the original has not been updated yet.

This sounds like me! Our boxes are locked up (kinda like the PO Boxes) in a little house. Atleast once a month I get my neighbor's mail. Not sure if they have ever got mine as I never get a delivery from them.
