		<description>I can&#039;t - but contact your bank/building society and they&#039;ll be able to help with a credit/debit card. If you are having trouble paying your mortgage or rent, let your mortgage company/landlord know: they may be able to work something out with you. If that doesn&#039;t help, then contact your local financial authority or similar (such as the Citizens Advice Bureau) and let them know you are suffering financial hardship which could result in you becoming homeless.</description>

		<description>Hello Jerzee,

That&#039;s a good question! I do know that&#039;s a Visa Debit card issued by Wachovia Bank (just by the first 6 digits) - the second batch of numbers is either the transaction or approval code for that purchase: however, this may differ depending on the card swipe machine. This number should allow the merchant to immediately lookup the transaction if you later have a query with the payment.

It doesn&#039;t look like any of the information which is encoded within the magnetic swipe of the card (see Wikipedia&#039;s article on &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO/IEC_7813&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;ISO/IEC 7813&lt;/a&gt; for more information).</description>

		<description>I have a magnetic stripe card machine and just out of curiosity, when a card is swiped/read through the reader it shows the number on the front of the card, an equal sign, then another long number after that. What is that secondary number (after the equal sign and what does it represent? (ex: 482866957826wxyz=1309256942573658)</description>
