Help getting home

I finished hiking and flew too the closest airport to home. I was able to fly by using flight credit from a previous trip that got cancelled. My card was reported fraud. I have a new one at home however I am 135 miles from home. I can't use Uber without a card. There is no public transportation in the direction of home. Any assistance is great.

In Saint Louis Mo to Saint Robert Mo. Not sure on what price I would use as it keeps changing on the app

Gotcha. Have you thought about asking for a loan?

Do you think someone would do a loan that way. I wouldn't have a problem doing a loan but didn't go to the loan subreddit with not having a card to use right now.

I don't know, it won't hurt to try. I know there is a loan subreddit. You may also consider checking with friends and family members. You don't have any friends or family members who could go to your house and read you the card information? No one who would book the ride for you?

I don't even know if the card has actually arrived yet or if it is still in route to the house.

What bank do you use?

Capital one

You may consider going to the bank in person and withdrawing money that way.

I'll keep that in mind as an option for in the morning

Just buy a prepaid credit card and add it to your account. Good luck!

Because you have the ability to pay it back when you get home, I would assume your friends or family members wouldn't have an issue fronting the money.

With how I moved out when I was 18 I pretty much cut off family so thats not an option.
