Jim "Jay Honeck" wrote in message news:4tXHe.214775$_o.8372@attbi_s71... Having been screwed multiple times by credit card companies in the three years we've been a vendor (at the hotel), I can tell you that credit card companies are run by the biggest pack of scum on the planet. They will screw anyone and everyone, without provocation or excuse, to make a nickel. Now you're coming off as the whiney one. Birds of a feather with the OP? |

When he first joined this newsgroup he was kind of reasonable and interesting but as he's got more comfortable here he's really started showing us all his backside. This thread started out as someone simply taking a shot at the newsgroup on the off chance that the pilot who got a fillup on his card is honest, made an honest mistake, and might be on the newsgroup. Small odds but worth a try IMO. From that according to Matt he's become a whiner who doesn't take responsibility for his actions, etc etc. I'm starting to think the self-righteous preaching is a more important hobby than flying for Matt. |

Matt, do you ever say anything nice? Yes, when people talk like responsible adults. If you'd rather a ditzy PC discussion, I suppose I could fake that for a few minutes. |

Well, we may both be whining, but we're certainly seeing the issue from different ends of the telescope. I'm whining? I adhere to contracts and absorb my losses and don't advertise them AND I'M WHINING? He's worried about getting screwed by a fellow pilot who used his unused credit at the pump. Others have suggested that he inform the credit card company, in an effort to receive credit for the "unauthorized" charge. Fine, he should. But first he comes in as "Hey, did one of you rip me off??" A adult would say what happened and ask "What should I do? Should I call the CC company? Talk to the FBO?" Jay, where are your great "conservative values"? :~) BTW, my initial poiint was your jumpoff the create the strawman. I, on the other hand, am speaking from experience with dishonest card holders who dispute legitimate charges, and are backed up by their criminally complicit credit card companies. Geez, listen to yourself. What does that tangent have to do with his case. He screwed up royally and ANAICT, never accepted responsibility for that screw up. Would you accpt such behavior from your kids, though they're MUCH younger? If the original poster informs his CC company, and they actually credit him back the disputed amount, they WILL charge the FBO, no questions asked, sight unseen. It is their standard policy -- and the FBO will have very little recourse. Bottom line: CC companies NEVER lose. They not supposed to lose, they're third parties to the transaction. If they're that bad, why not stop accepting CC's? BTW, want to guess how much they lose to CC fraud each year? It never ceases to amaze me how people can rationalize _anything_. |

I was meeting people all week long from this group, most of whom I had never heard of. They all started the conversation with "I'm mostly a lurker, but..." Lurking is a time honored Usenet tradition and should be encouraged. If you lurk long enough you will eventually post..... And we all benefit in some way from hearing other's opinions/wisdom, even if we don't always off our own. Okay you lurkers...count off from the right!!! |
