Well not exactly, but wanted to let you guys know my story so you will be cautious if it happens to you.

Bought 2-new batteries for the barge this weekend. Used my debit card for payment. His card reading machine was not working, so he swiped it thru again still nada, and then again. Finally I offered to pay with a check which completed the sale and I was on my way.

This morning while checking my account online and every swipe did in fact go thru. So was charged for each swipe, and the check has not even cleared yet! :eek:

Will be calling in the morning to resolve this and I am sure it will work out but it is tying up money I should have in the account. Just wanted you guys to be aware if it ever happens to you.

Exactly why I never use a debit card. Credit cards only.
