I've had my fair share today.

I took my truck to the car wash today to get it washed and I guess when they were vacuuming it out and had the doors open plus having to start it 2 times that was enough to drain the already weak battery. The truck comes rolling to the end of the car wash where everyone is waiting and the truck won't start. So it's stuck in the car wash and the cars are backing up and people are not pleased. Finally some guy steps up that has jumper cables so we hook it up. It takes a few minutes to get enough of a charge to start...meanwhile I feel like a total loser.

This past weekend one of the wineries we were at accidentally tried to charge my debit card 3 times for the same charge and my bank placed a fraud hold on my account which I didn't know until I tried to use it again. I called my bank and got it straightened out and they removed the hold the next day.

Well fast forward to today.....I go to the car wash and go to the gas station and use the debit card....no problem. I go to the grocery store....the same one I go to every day and the checker who I know quite well tells me my card was declined by the bank. FUCK ME! Everyone in the line behind me is looking at me like "hey dirtbag, put some money in the account and that won't happen". I had to charge my groceries on a credit card.

I get home and call the bank and they can't give me a straight answer why they placed another fraud hold my account. They asked if it was a store I don't frequent and I told them that I go there every single day. They said someone will call me and they removed the hold on my account but now I'm afraid to use the card at all.

Needless to say I very rarely drink hard alcohol but I am tonight.

That's why I always use my EBT Card, they don't care what I do with it. In fact I cried and they sent me 2 of em.

I've had that happen to me a few times...people with bad taste in clothing using my credit card and me being told my the merchant that I have to "call" my bank.

While it's a hassle I'm always relieved.

Think of it as a positive. If your account was cleaned out...that's an inconvenience;)

SBS has it down. They never question EBT cards. Not at casinos, not in Hawaii. If there is money on it, its good to go, anywhere. And they are accepted on more places. You can buy everything from a stolen car to drugs with one if you like.
You could get lunch in Bejing during the Olympics with one. I never leave home without it.

I had my card declined once and the smart assed little clerk asked if I had a credit card I could try. I had $108,000.00 in my account at the time.

It's even more effective if you file in CA and live in AZ. CA dollars get you a lot more for our tax dollars in Havasu. ;)

I want an EBT card. All I need to do is quit my job, take my hat in my hand and go ask strangers for money, right? Sorry, I have too much pride.

BTW, I heard that the Pot Shops in Colorado are now accepting EBT cards also. :no:
