The 7 day thing got me in Vegas in 04, with Paypal. Remember that?
I was there for 5 days. I get to the hotel and they use the card to authorize the room. No problem.
5 days later, I go to check out and hand them the card.... no go. It's denied. Why is it denied? Because I still have 2 more days to go on the authorization releasing those funds again.
STUPID.
