MG4 Trophy have "eaten" my credit card!

[webhiker]

Being on a roadtrip I frequently use my ceedit card to pay for road tolls etc. Upon taking off from the toll station I placed the card on the sliding lid/deck. Not a good idea! The card slid backwards and under the lip and I could hear it dropping into tve void.
It looks like the console is one big piece.
Does anybody know how access this void?
Otherwise I'll have to drop the car at the dealer when I return home in a couple of weeks

I had that happen with a five pound note - waited for ages but there was no change

Anyone know how to take this apart. It is stuck on a flashlight I put in there and can't open it.

Thanks in advance

Thanks for the very elaborate details. It's amazing what this forum have of information
It has made my decision easier. I will order a new credit card and leave it to some car archeology to ponder on what has gone on in this car

Getting a new credit card is probably way easier @webhiker

Definitely sounds like the easier option!!

I once lost a house key down inside my Golf. It was still there when the car went for scrap.

Maybe it will take the money for data when you use it all up.

Not sure why, but I'm imagining a car ordering expensive accessories for itself...

@webhiker, try sticking a decent sized piece of double-sided sticky tape approximately where your indigoneo card is, and then slide the lid open and closed a few times. If I'm honest, this probably won't work, but you never know, you just might get lucky and it'll catch your credit card. Good Luck.
