Expensive HCP

[MudBugjr]

My wife finally went to the DMV today after passing her class a few months ago. Went in and filled out paperwork then swiped the check card. Machine didn't work told to swipe a second time to no avail. So she swiped a third time no go . So out came the business credit card which it accepted. When she got home checked the on line banking the swipes from the check card where there for over 300$. Made a call and just so happens they where having a problem between 9-10 am this morning with the machines. No I'm sorry, just a we'll see what we can do Monday. Hopefully they take care of this.

It may well be that it simply took authorizations - if the DMV doesn't follow up with the actual charge then the authorizations should come off automatically. However, you may be able to make that happen more quickly by talking directly with your bank!

I've had that sort of thing happen to me too...very frustrating and it tends to happen when it's the least convenient (such as traveling away from home!).

It wouldn't have been as bad if they would have just said sorry we screwed up and we'll fix it. We'll see. You have to jump through enough hoops now days to have to deal with stupid problems.

This seems odd to me, as a safety precaution CC companies will not do duplicate charges because of this very reason.
