I am working in a retail store when a manager called us to report an incident that a customer purchased around $1,000 using a fraud credit card. How come that the credit card company sent an approval number for a fraud credit card. Well, the big issue was who will pay for the $1,000 lost. The poor cashier did payed it all. Too bad!

I do, me. At first, I was using my credit card simply to make my life easier. At the end of the month, I would pay bills in full. Then, I tried buying more to put up a store. At the end of the month, I couldn't pay up, and the interest just kept going up.

It's against the law to charge an employee for a store's shortages. Your friend ought to call the labor board and report this.

My worst experience was when I missed a payment and got hit with a large amount of interest. I usually pay in full every month so I was shocked at how much the interest rate was. I was able to get the fee taken off though cause of my good record.

me and my friend had gone to get out some 200 pounds from an ATM machine but the machine always said that it was out of order. the next day when we went to get out the 200 pounds, the receipt we got said that we had taken out 200 pounds a day before also. we wrote a letter regarding this to the company as to how can this happen when the machine said that it was out of order.those people didnt have an answer for it and ultimately they had to refund those 200 pounds

Declined! Trying to pay for something and having your card declined is the worst. It always happens when you are with friends and there are a lot of other people around. Cashiers used to be sensitive about this and quietly ask for another card. Now they practically shout out, "DECLINED!" It's especially annoying when it isn't your fault, but the card company's error.

Actually, that isn't the worst in terms of consequences, but it's the most embarrassing.

it happens to the best of them.. Sometimes it may they dont take payment from the card or the system is messed up..
