new numbers are a pain in the posterior though. i might just wait it out. was just hoping to see if anyone else had automatically received the new card.
If you request a new card, the replacement will be the same card number and have the same PIN.

Damage could mean that the chip is defective but the magnetic strip still works or vise versa. On the lower left side, on the front of the card you should see a two digit number. If it is 01 then it is your first card issued. When you request a replacement card the new card will be 02. Once the new card is activated the 01 issue is deactivated.

I have had the same bank card for over 37 years but now on card number 23.
