Never mind the couple of bucks you lost that you are getting back. Are you always so dramatic?
Tell me about the time your credit card got comprised.

A few years ago, an affluent child was expelled from an affluent school for stealing food. He was sent to another school. It was well publicized and ended sadly.

Very likely your kid told a friend to use her number to buy lunch

You must have an ES student. It's not hard at all - everyone's email is that seven digit number, it's on their laptops, etc. I asked my 8th grader sitting here and she rattled off a couple without thinking. Kids know these numbers and making it the lunch PIN was a bad idea.


Kind of like old timers like me who had people's phone numbers memorized. I don't know how many I knew, but I can assure you it was way more than ten. And, in those days, they were seven digits. Not hard--especially if you are young.


Exactly! I'm 49 and can still say all my childhood best friends' phone numbers. Some of their parents would still answer if I called!


This and I can still tell you some of friends locker combinations as those were often shared as well

It is a big deal because it’s theft. Do you know who is stealing from you?


The school made a fraudulent charge. Credit card company charges back, fcps pays the fee, some kid gets a free lunch because fcps stopped bothering to associate the diners with their own payment accounts.

Assuming OP confirms this was theft (not the teen buying lunch for someone, etc) and if OP contests this week's charges and they are reversed, doesn't the student who took OP's student ID number still have it so they could keep using it?


I would just call and see what they can do for you.

I have a middle schooler, too, and she doesn't know her friends' student ID numbers. But of course, OP, your sweet little angel would never lie to you. She would never toss the lunch you lovingly made her and buy school pizza. Never!!
