OT - Best Business Credit Card?
"Morgans" wrote in message ...
Although I don't recall the exact reasons and circumstances, MasterCard once denied approval at a gas station, for me, once. I was briefly ****ed, then pulled out my emergency Visa, and vowed I would get to the bottom of it when I got home. I had something similar happen about 14 months ago... I had driven down to Florida with my boat to do some diving and it seems they had a problem with my filling up the tank on my truck and then using the same pump to fill up my boat a minute later... I just switched to another card and contacted them later to straighten it out... They said that the spending was suspicious since it was outside of my usual area... I asked them if they had ever heard of the term 'vacation' and told them that if they were to check their records over the last few days, they would see charges of $40-50 at gas stations every 250 or so miles from New Orleans to Key West... |

Florida with my boat to do some diving and it seems they had a problem with my filling up the tank on my truck and then using the same pump to fill up my boat a minute later...

Apparently that's an automatic anti-theft thing. We had a guest pay for their suite, and then a few minutes later, pay for their friend's suite. Identical prices, identical business. It wouldn't go through, and the guy had to call the 800 number on the back of his card to get it okayed. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |
