Or would I still need an ID?

The wristband lasts all 4 days

If you already have your wristband DL the Lockn 2018 app and you can register it right through the app and link it to your CC.

Last year my credit card put a fraud freeze on, and I had to call them and talk to them.

For some reason I can't remember why or what I said to take care of it.

I wish I did, so I could take care of it in advance this year.

carry cash back-up.

have more than one card for this reason. I have one I almost never use, but carry travelling, separate from the others, in case my wallet or working card is stolen or, as in your case, hacked. I go to too many places where a next-day replacement won't work.

I just looked back on my credit card bill, holy crap I drank too much!

I think the issue was the repeated charges showing up at some company in Colorado. I guess thats who was handling payments for them.

I had some issues with the wristband payments in the past. The problems were with either: my bank, Visa, or the LOCKN cashless service. At any rate, be wise and carry backup cash as sometimes your wristband will not work with certain vendors. It's a bitch to wait in a long line and you can't pay for your purchase.

And even more of a bitch to be behind someone in that boat. Especially if they don't have cash back-up.

This. When I travel out of state, I just let my cc company know where I'm going and it doesn't become an issue.

Worf asked me to do this for him yesterday and it was a piece of cake. I was able to do it in the bank's app on my phone, setting the departure and return dates. Who knew it was so easy?!?!

I think the issue wasn't where I was going (Virginia) I think the issue was all the charges were showing up from their payment processor in Colorado.

Oh well, I have cash and can call them again if it happens again.

Hopefully they are using the same payment people so maybe the credit card already knows I'm ok with them
