:angry
So I went to dinner last night and when I paid with my Credit Card the waiter came back with my signature slip and he had charged me for the wrong table! Instead of running my card for $74 he ran it for $147.  So they promised they had corrected it... Well I check my bank account today and not only is that $147 charge on there but there is a charge for $225!!! So I call the bank and they can't help, I call the restaurant and they say they don't have any record of a $225 charge, and if I want to I can come down and show them my bank statement!!! WTF!! They say it was a computer program error on the restaurants side, I wonder how many other people got over charged! So long story short they aren't going to do anything for me and I just have to wait 1-5 days to see if the almost $400 in extra charges go back into my account! DICKS! So if you live in or near Huntington Beach don't go to Cavallino on Beach and Adams!
ALSO! I rented a quad from this company called Recreation Unlimited in Placentia over Christmas, and they are being all shady about giving me my $250 deposit back! It's been over 2 weeks now since I returned the bike, they say that they can't find my file or some s#*@! GURR!! I hope this doesn't continue to happen to me all year!!!!! :fight

I've been having fun with CC lately myself... must be the new year... luckily everything has been taken off mine, but it's still a pain in the ass...

That's one reason I keep my debit card limited to a couple hundred a day... but I can sympathise... I'd be running on fumes myself if that happened to me...

Whatever you do, don't use the debit card for internet purchases.
Even if it has a Visa or M/C logo on it, if you have a problemo they won't help you out. It's up to the issuing Bank...and we all know how helpful they can sometimes be...don't we?? :stupid

Believe it or not, I found Discovercard to be the most helpful. They will even reverse a Paypal charge if you used their card to make the Paypal transaction. I've really pissed off the Paypal people a couple of times. They told me I would have to wait 2 weeks while they "Investigate"...no I didn't.

Discover gave me my money back within the hour and told Paypal to deal with it. :good

Sorry to hear about your woes N.T.....but thanks for the heads-up. I've been invited to dinner in H.B. next week, I'll ask for the name of the place first! ;)

It's a fact of Life:

After Monday and Tuesday, even the Calendar says : WTF .......

Sorry to hear about the BS.  As far as the CC thing goes, I'd say give it a few days.  I know once in a while I have to correct a customers CC and it usually takes a couple of days for all the BS to go through the system and reflect on teh person bank account.  

Keep us posted, I may have other solutions if your account isn't credited in 2-3 days.  Still sucks though.

:jumpie Well I got part of my $ back...  The incorrect charges from the resturant were cleared today, but get this, they still charged me for my dinner... The place is a new resturant, it just opened last week, they should be bending over backwards for me! You would think all the trouble they caused me and me out $400 all weekend they would have given me a free meal or something... Sheesh... As for my deposit from the rental place, I got the same answer today that I got last week, "Sorry the manager is not in and I don't do deposit returns"... I told them I would be there Thursday to pick up my deposit and they better have it ready!  :angry
They don't know that I am a paralegal and my boss' would be extremely willing to take any measures necessary to get my $ back, so they better watch out...
Now my newest problem is a purchase on ebay... Can't get the seller to respond when it's gonna be shipped, I paid over 2 weeks ago, guess I will have to call paypal or something... :fight
Oh well ya win some ya loose some!

Goin to the river to destroy my liver!
