Im sorry, but when you're used to doing 1:150, day in and day out, and then a couple days pop up at 0:4000. Something is wrong, and someone is doing their job wrong.

To say, everything is running fine, etc. etc. is an insult to our intelligence.

How bout someone actually cough up some fucking truth around here, and say something like

"Well, we've been getting alot of fraud on some of our accounts, and in order to keep ourselves under the Visa radar, we decided to go ahead and just deny 90% of all transactions for the next two days. That will go ahead and give us a little bit better daily average of chargebacks."

And don't even bother to quote me the law of averages.

Those 3 words are severely played out.

Im just venting, my foodstamps are a week late here in Texas. =(

I agree 100%...

No way in gods earth that nobody changes anything and declines go from 3-10% all the way up to 30%+ and in a few days it will drop back down as if nothing happened.

I'm starting to think scrub is 100% chance on 'possible good' transactions. Of course known bad or blocked countries are dropped from the start. The rest is a random role of the dice, you either crap out or keep going. Sometimes it's all CRAP!
