It seems for the past couple of years whenever I head out of town and use my credit card, BOA locks it for "suspicious" activity. We were in the Big Easy for a few days and I bought Rhonda dinner for her birthday.
The WHOLE trip, I made that one, yes *ONE* charge to my credit card. BOA flagged this as "suspicious" and locked my account. I discovered it upon return home.
When I called them, they said, "well, there was a charge for ATT and Verizon wireless. Those were suspicious."
Oh REALLY?? Those charges recur at the same time EVERY MONTH? WHY are they now "suspicious?" The poor gal had no idea, nor a clue.
I traveled to Dayton, OH in May and they locked my debit card because I dared to get gas on the interstate. OH THE HORROR!!
The lady said I should notify them whenever I travel. Is this the standard now? I can charge all the money I want to "Whores are us" via the internet but they don't care, but actually travel somewhere and use my card and they lock it out?
WTF??
I've had this same card since 1987. I pay it off in full every month. It has some absurd credit limit of $52,000.
I think they are just trying to get me to switch to someone else 'cuz I never carry a balance and there is no annual fee.
Fuckers!!
