Best Answer

The first and foremost thing to do once you lose your debit card is to call up your banks customer care and block the card. This will ensure that miscreants will not misuse your card and withdraw cash or make purchases. Then you must contact the local police station and file a complaint reg. the missing card so that they can search for it. Then you can ask the bank to issue you a duplicate debit card. This police complaint would also be required to get the duplicate card from your bank.
