That time of the month...

[edible_hat]

Disclaimer: this isn't what you're thinking from the thread title.

Last week I had a guy trying to buy a bunch of stuff using his debit card. The card was declined. He said to try it again, so I did and it was declined again (as I expected). He pulled out an ATM reciept from the day before showing a balance over $1000. He got in a huff and left.

He came back 15 minutes later with a different card. Same bank, same account name, the only difference was the new one expires 10/10 instead of 10/07.

Oh such wonderfulness on the first of the month :) I feel your pain truly I do.

So how does a complete hairbrained idiot like you who doesn't know a thing about anything else know about "that" time of the month?

Well when I was a lad there was a time every month when all of the sorceresses would lose their magic. Whenever I asked they always said it was "that" time of the month..... what does it mean anyway?

lol i had a good one last month, a woman called in using her credit card (pretty damn sure it was credit... may have been debit) i get her info and it expired 09/07.
SC- Oh look at that its almost expired!
Me- *sigh....* no ma'am it is expired, i cant except it. Do you have another card?
SC- What you mean you can't except it!! I use this card all the time!!!
Me- Ma'am your order wont go through with that card, in fact i can't even sumbit that card in to the system. If you where lucky and i could you would have a 50/50 chance of customer service not thinking you where purchasing some with a stole card and calling you to get a new one. Do you have another card you can use?
SC- Look here girlly, I use this card everywhere, no one has ever rejected it. Take it.
Me- *puts it in hit the will we except button nope* Sorry my compter wont take it. I will need another card or i will have o delete the order.
SC- I JUST USED IT THIS MORNING!!
Me- I don't know why it went through then, but i cant take it. Do you have another card?
SC- NO!
Me- Ok, well then i cant complete the order, thank you for calling you have a great day.
SC- NO YOU TAKE MY ORDER!
Me- Can't do that ma'am i cant even get your address without a chargeable card, please call back after you talked to the card company and got a new card. Bye. *mute headset off*

I was just thinking of that show the other day, when I was painting the fence, and stuck my hand in the pool to clean it a bit, and thought: Damn, I wish I could throw fireballs... I'd hop right in.

She probably has the new card sitting in a pile of unopened mail or something...:rolleyes:

You mean he did not try to blame his mistake on you? :D

i would be inclined to think that if i haddn't also asked if she had recently received one (i omited it because well it was long tedious and was basically only a a break before the yelling) and she look through her mail and said no.

in 2-4 minutes inbetween

He tried to prove it was good by showing me the previous night's balance slip from an ATM, but when that didn't work he seemed to accept the facts.
