Lol, I know because I did same mistake back in 1999. I had two cards and before the end of my holiday none of my cards worked.

I remember I went to numerous exchange boots and banks before Bangkok Bank were able to help me to withdraw money without working magnetic strip.

Another note to the original topic, sometimes cards are cloned at ATMs, so be beware of strange devices put in front of the card slot, this kind of cloning happens all over the world I think.
