Most banks, etc. are open on Saturday. I highly recommend that you do it tomorrow rather than Monday. Some have 24/7 customer service.

Yeah, I know, I sound like an alarmist- but I know what can happen. All an identity thief needs to know is a combination of your name and only one of the following:

Your birth date
Your social security number (of course!)
Account number(s)
Your address

With any of those combinations- they are set to steal your identity. Trust me, that's a HORRIBLE mess to unravel.

When anyone has a company laptop stolen at my company- we automatically go into panic mode. Even though we have encryption software on all of our computers, those hackers can be brilliant. I hope for your sake that they're just out for the laptop and not the information in it.

OK- done with the lecture. Back to your regularly scheduled programming.
