For the last few months, via FB, my 21yr old nephew has been counting down the days to his summer holiday in Aya Napa. |

GL....l am so sorry for your nephew, what a thing to happen, as you say the money side is fairly easy to sort out but the passport etc noway. Why do people have to be so b----y horrible. Fingers tightly crossed the bag is found with passport inside. |

That's rough on him, I hope by now his passport has been found and he can get away. Did he get insurance so he can claim if he loses his holiday, I do hope so. |

Must be very upsetting for him as he was looking forward to his holiday, maybe the bag with his passport will be found timeously, if not, can the passport office not treat this as an emergency and courier a new one to him - he could try seeking help from his local MP. |

Sadly, the passport office cannot produce a new one in a single day. |

What a shame things keep going wrong for him, hope he doesn't go out partying on Saturday night and misses his flight. Has he got insurance as if not I think he should get some, he seems to be going through an unlucky streak atm |

Has he spoken to his Car Insurance Company to see if they will compensate him for the loss of his cash and replacement passport - all good wishes - Liz |

Next time maybe they should use one of those cards you put your money onto instead of having a lot of cash on them. You can get them at the travel agents. It's a sad lesson for them both but they will be much more security aware now. I hope they can get recompense from their insurance companies (always hoping they were insured properly, another thing young people don't always bother with) |

Sorry to hear about all the problems but sadly it is a big bad world out there. There are lots of lessons to be learned here for all of us, but the biggest must be not to leave money or valuables anywhere were some scum bag can help himself. The trouble is that youngsters don't always appreciate the risks which is why they are often targeted. |
