So, I check my bank account on-line Sunday night and I see a pending charge for $120.00 made to a company I've never even HEARD of. First thing Monday morning, I go to my bank and report it as a fraudulent charge. They tell me not to worry, that most of the time, it's just an error, and it'll "drop of my account" but to check today to make sure. Sure enough, the charge has gone through. Now I have to find time to go back into the bank and file a written fraud report, and wait to be re-imbursed. This is complete BULLSHIT. The should have been able to cancel the charge that I KNEW wasn't mine WHEN I REPORTED IT IN THE FIRST PLACE. The end result is that I'm being even more inconvenienced, and the fucker that made the charge is getting what they ordered using MY card. Sure, now the bank will investigate it as fraud and the fucker MIGHT get caught, but now I've got to keep an extra close watch on my account, because you KNOW the fucker will try again, since they've actually gotten away with it. What's the fucking point of keeping an eye on your account if this is how it's dealt with?
