Default Car broken into :(

long story short...

got up this morning to find my car unlocked and door slightly open, only to realise some little twats have been in my car and stole my wallet.
Car is a 2006 bmw 330 and there is no visible damage of how they opened it?

They have drew cash out on my credit cards too which i dont know how or if i will even get it back?

asda have cctv footage of them at the cash point at 2.06am!

so pissed off, car was defo locked so dont know how they got in it

German build quality. They even give you card details away.

Rule #1 - make sure car is locked
Rule #2 - don't leave wallet in car. Especially overnight. There's a reason wallets fit in pockets...
Rule #3 - don't leave piece of paper with PIN code in wallet alongside cards.

I agree, If the card and PIN number is together that is classed as "Negligence" and you won't get squat from the bank

In this case they had to have known the pin to lift the cash

I came on here for some advice, and as I should oh expected got nothing but smart arse remarks!

The pin numbers were not with the cards, how they have done It I don't know, If I knew that I wouldn't be in the position I'm in!

As for the german build quality comment?! What a pointless post?! Not like any cosworths ever been stolen is it?

More so still doesn't explain how they managed to get money from a atm with no pin numbers.
