Following is a copy of a comment made to the linked article (by someone other than me). Much ado about nothing.
*******************
“ Anyone who has had to fill a large gas tank over 25 gallons knows this message is from the card issuing bank. The giveaway being the $125 limit as opposed to a message saying you’ve reached your 7.63 gallons for the day. Card companies note your average refueling costs and when things change drastically, they impose a limit. I’ve had this happen several times over the years with a Ford Excursion with a 44 gallon tank. Diesel prices spike and I have to use two or more cards. Nothing new to see here ;-)”
It’s not your banks business as long as the credit or debit funds are available
Thanks. My own credit union debit card already has a 2000 dollar daily limit for general purposes. Fortunately, I have a Kia Soul, so I don’t think I’ll reach card limits at the gas pump itself. For now.
Hmmm...
Guess I’ll be faced with such an issue when I stop and fill both my van (30-gal) and my bass-boat’s two 15-gal tanks...
