Someone do me a favor and ask why they set up their sign-up process so it authorizes and then charges you as separate transactions. For example, if you want to start out by loading $100 on your card, it authorizes (holds) $100, and then runs a separate charge (with a separate transaction number) at the end of the process.

That's just fucked up... in all of my years of shopping I've *never* run into a business that ran the authorization and the charge as separate transactions... and I'm an obsessive complulsive shopper, so I've seen a lot. =P
