On a cold wash.

Will it still work?

It doesn't look physically damaged.

Probably - just go and test it

Should do

Careful, you can get done for laundering money.

I’ll see myself out…

Brilliant

Just try it in an atm for a statement balance, that will tell you if it is working.

Usually they work - I would add it to your Apple/Google pay before you go anywhere with it unless you have a spare card, just in case

I washed my sons air pods, they worked after

Yes, I will do that before I cause embarrassment on a restaurant.

I am a total luddite and of a very suspicious nature and don't do money on my phone.

DH puts his wallet, complete with cards, through the wash a couple of times a year, the divvy. Doesn't seem to do them any harm.

Great dry humour, BogWitch. And there was I worrying I could get in hot water if I can't pay - was in quite a spin and about to throw in the towel, felt wrung out with worry. . I am so wet. ! Was trying not to air my dirty laundry in public and my card was in my pocket.

Some years ago, when she was a toddler, dd found my purse and posted all my cards down the cracks in the floorboards 😂
