The $7 withdrawal receipt that caught a double charge at a gas pump in Saskatoon
Stopped for fuel on the way out of Saskatoon last Tuesday. Pump showed $54.20, but my bank app pinged $108.40 the next morning. Called the card company, they said it was a pending hold. I waited 4 days, still there. So I went back to the same pump, printed a $0.00 receipt just to see the terminal ID, and handed that to the fraud line. They reversed it in 20 minutes. Anyone else had a hold that stuck around way longer than it should? Try grabbing a receipt from the exact pump, even if you don't buy anything.
How long did you wait before you went back to the pump? Wondering if the hold would have dropped on its own after a week or so. And did the fraud line say why the hold got stuck in the first place, like a system glitch or the pump not sending the batch through? Curious if it was the station's problem or the bank's. Also did that $0.00 receipt actually show the terminal ID, or did you have to ask the cashier for it?
