We get holds on several items/vendors we use. They take a few dollars, and then shortly later that charge disappears and the full, final charge appears.
If I recall, it has happened with gasoline purchases - but not lately, because we only use cash for gas now. (Our card has had fraudulent activity in other states twice, shortly after it was used at a gas pump here. We assume it was some kind of ‘skimming’ so now, only cash.)
Helpful, thanks
Good point about credit card skimming/fraud at gas stations. Had that occur a few times about six years ago. Now use Apple Pay with the gas rebate card. No issues. Happy.
