-yes ohmygosh more rants-
So earlier I tried to purchase some pet spray at Target. The card was declined at the till. Knowing I had money they sent me to customer service(ha what a joke). They then reswiped my card twice, telling me they had a problem with the debit systems. Both times it was declined. I left in a huff and on a whim checked by bank balance-and found out that those transactions went through and charged on my account.
I went back to target, showed them the ticket. They told me they could do nothing there and since they had issues target will revert my money-in a few days. I was to check it every now and then to see.
Fuck you guys. FUCK YOU. That amount of money may not be a lot to you but it feeds me for a few days. Your snippy sarcastic words when you asked if I still lived with my parents were not warranted nor enjoyed.
And to top that off after I checked my account tonight it says something withdrawn 20 dollars...on the 29th.
Its the 28th, just turned the 28th five minutes ago.
Now im out over 40 bucks, money that would have bought cat food and litter, and I have to wait a few days till target gives my money back(MAYBE) and my bank gets back to me.
I didnt need more anxiety or reasons to be anxious, but you know what Fuck life. Just, fuck.

Most banks that I've dealt with will reverse the charges immediately if you contest them, and then target would have to deal with the bank, not you. It's a fairly standard practice.
I, personally, would rant them out everywhere you can, anywhere you can post/review about them, just bother the hell out of them.
Not that it would do much, being a large company, but still. That's really terrible to hear :(
