My paycheck was auto deposited at 12:01am that day. There was money in that account so why was my card rejected? The store manager said try that bank (same shopping center) and of course it worked. So why did he say my card wasn't good instead of saying 'We are doing a balance check'?
I do not shop at ACME because of that lie! And many people know about this now.
I understand. One grocery near me rejected my card. The first time I called the bank in a panic-nothing wrong with my account. the store blamed the bank's satellite when I went back and complained. Next time it happened I just walked out, went across the street and bought the same stuff at their competitor . Purchase went right thru. NEVER had a problem at the second store. They've had my business ever since.
