Remember, earlier I had lost my newly purchased camera in Italy. It was a terrible loss. Not only do I hate losing those types of things, but I lost all the pictures from the show and the trip as well. Alas, it was only a camera - but it was too new and too nice to lose. I was able to get a record of our trip by borrowing the images from our sister company in Australia. Karl Isherwood of Cormack Anest Iwata was kind enough to lone me his shots. The pictures posted from the Italy visit are actually courtesy of Karl. I owe Karl a big THANK YOU for sharing those with me.
While I was in Italy and after numerous forms and phone calls I was able to connect with my credit card bank at Visa. After a lengthy route from department to department I finally connected with the right person in the claims department. It turns out that if you lose something that was purchasesd with a Visa card and it is within 90 days from original purchase date, along with meeting other criteria Visa will reimburse you up to 500 for the purchase. Shortly after I came home from Italy I was pleasantly surprised that Visa had sent me a check for $500.00 to cover the cost of the missing camera! I was forever greatful and took great comfort in knowing that I was covered; overseas and by my credit card company.
So here's a picture of my friend who is back on the job with me.
