Sample format of letter to get new credit card due to loss of old credit card

Hi, I am Vicky from Madurai, Tamil Nadu. In this letter, I write my own experience regarding the lose of my credit card and What I did after that to get new credit card. How I got my new credit card from the bank where I keep the credit card transactions with my account. The story begins below:

I went to a supermarket in my locality here. I always pay bill using credit card and so I kept my credit card in my purse. I purchased all the grocery and household essentials for me. Finally the bill was made in the super market. At that time, I opened my purse and I was shocked that I did not find my credit card in the purse. Luckily, I had some money in my purse so that I was able to pay my bill in the super market.

In the same day, immediately after reaching my home, I went to bank (SBI where I keep the account) and informed the incident to the bank manager. He asked me to write a letter and submit so that the new credit card will be given to you. I have written the request to block / stop immediately the credit card transaction and give me a new card. Here is the letter format I used. You can use this format for your need if you are required to write a letter like this one for getting new credit card due a loss or theft of your old credit card.
