Bank told me it was visa, the actual visa company. My biggest bitch like I said in my post about that issue, was last summer when they found suspicious activity, they called me and asked. Told me if it was an authorized purchase there wasn't a problem they would okay it. This time they cancelled the card, and get this... After they paid vaptasia and the other company, and I had to wait a few weeks for a new card.
Also this summer on one of our vacations, since we took two vehicles and my husband got gas in two they suspended his card. Went to check out at a hotel we stopped at over night and his card was declined. I used mine and called the bank, they said ok we will unblock it. So when we took another trip in July I called the bank and said he what do I need to do so this doesn't happen again, in June it wasn't just because of the two cars, but multiple state purchases. I said come on people go on vacation do you block everyone's card? So they told me to come in before the July trip and fill out paper work for Visa that let them know we would have out of state purchases that week.
Like I told the bank I really appreciate the protective nature of this issue, but don't understand why, with the first issue we received a call before it was blocked, the vacation issues it was unblocked with a simple phone call and the vape purchases, they flat out cancelled the card, and made me have a new one reissued. My bank swears it's not them, it's visa that manages their debit cards that does this. The paperwork we filled out for the second vacation did have Visas info on it as well, not the bank itself. Maybe I should call Visa and be like okay guys do you have a paper I can fill out that says vape related is okay? Lol
My husband and I absolutely hate credit cards, if I can't afford it I don't buy it. Our exes liked them way too much.
I did break down and get a Discover card to cover my daughters wedding deposits because her dad decides to drag his half out til the end of time. I am not a rich woman, so this way I can pay his half without touching my bank account. I just don't want to use it on a regular basis.
I love vapingtown on ebay, and the problem with fasttech, I have to sign for all my packages, which is fine in the summer, but sucks now that schools starting, have to wait another day to go to the post office for pick up. Anyway, I wanted to be able to try some of the companies and juices I keep hearing about and thought I would try asking people on here!
Sorry didn't mean to rant, It's just that it's not issue of me not appreciating the bank protecting me, it's how they have done it.
