More information:
If the key blade fits the ignition and the car starts, that indicates that the "pill" in the head of the key is talking to the car and the car recognises it. This has nothing to do with the remote portion of the head. The pill is an RFID chip.
So if the remote doesn't work and you don't have the numbers, your pretty well as the mercy of a dealer... AKA screwed. You can buy just the new remote head (comes with the pill/RFID) and install the old blade. Don't buy one off E-bay unless it comes with the barcode/numbers. The dealer needs that to program the remote feature.
