I sympathize with him; I have had that happen to me a couple of times, and while I do appreciate the vigilance of my CC provider, and realize what they are doing is in my best interest, it’s a horrible feeling when it happens, and a terrible hassle when your card is invalidated because somebody tried to put a suspicious 66-cent charge through.

Kudos to our CC co…

Instances where a couple of unusual charges came up, we were contacted within minutes of the charges to see if they were expected.

The restaurant declined the card? I think you mean the bank.

Imagine if he tried to order flowers for Michelle (American President reference).

So, he’s too lazy to go to the DMV and get back up ID information? He doesn’t have ID? How do we know he is what he says he is?
Let’s see the REAL birth certificate!

Yeah.
Well, in my purchasing for my IT department-- my corporate card gets compromised about every 4-to-6 months.
It’s a royal pain-- and the time I spend untangling everything-- and re-updating all of my vendor accounts is substantial.

You’d think CC providers could use an algorithm to perceive valid/invalid use based on the physical location of the attempted purchase-- based on where I work/reside.

But no. They’d rather stick to what doesn’t work and intermittently conspire with the fraudsters to screw me out of ever more time and effort.

His cred is rock-solid in Nairobi.

Benghazi cover-up, and a clear distraction from his gun confiscation program. You think the ebola outbreak and this latest development is a coincidence? Go ahead then, believe the LIEberal media.

I just hope he ordered the right kind of mustard this time.

I guess he spread the wealth a bit too far. HAHAHAHAHAH!

Sorry. For a moment there, I thought I was a Fox-watching Republican troll.

Eustace beat ya to it.

It happened to me at Disney World. It is a bank anti-fraud measure. The way to avoid it happening is to call the bank ahead of time and tell them you are going to be in a strange city and might use your card. They will make a note in your file and it will go through.

PBO, please! what’s the point of bring this up? There’s no way something like this going to help you or anyone else. Just more fodder for the right-wing. They know you’re hurt and they’re going in for the kill. Get a clue already!

You mean this one, right?
