    Since there isn’t really a viable mail service from the U.S. what do people do to get a new replacement credit or ATM card if your card gets lost or stolen? Every so often the credit cards send out new cards with new tech chips, etc. what’s the normal procedure in such matters?

    The most common option is to have them “muled” in – either bring them back yourself after visiting the US, or have them delivered to someone in the States who is planning to visit Ecuador. You can also use mail or via a courier like DHL or FedEx, however mail takes 4-8 weeks and is hard to track, and the courier services are expensive.
