Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread
**** you doug!
Im happy they flaged it but I just whish they notified me in some way. eveyone else I know that has had suspicious activity has been notified either first or very shortly after.
Mine got blocked when I was out at KOH, due to a 'series of potentially fraudulent transactions'.
1. Pack of cigarettes at a 7-11 near Philly Airport
2. $7 in-flight charge from US Air (had a beer)
3. $4 in-flight charge (bought an hour of WiFi to check my connecting flight)
4. $8 charge at a 7-11 near Cali airport (bought beef jerky for the drive to the desert)
5. $25ish charge at a gas station in Barstow, CA (fueled up the rental before heading into the desert)
6. $25ish charge at a gas station in Bishop, CA (fueled the rental before heading into the mountains)
The bank called me that morning (just what I wanted at 6 AM), at which point I informed them I did indeed make those purchases, and was going to be in Cali for the next 10 days. Game back on.
Just struck me as odd, because any logical person would look at that order of events and just figure that hey, somebody went to an airport, flew on a plane, landed, got a rental car, and put gas in it. Thanks for being proactive I guess.
I've never once called the bank ahead of time to notify them of travel plans. Hell, I don't remember to tell my parents half the time. :laugh:
Speaking of travel, anyone know how Rt. 301 is through Maryland? I have to make a trip to Hollywood, MD next week and am driving there...not sure if I want to do the loop around Baltimore & DC or pick up 301 in Delaware and take that all the way. If it's not completely full of suck then I might do anyway just to d something different.
