I forgot to tell you what came in the mail last week & this week!! Last week: The former owners of this house (the wife) received a brand new Visa debit card. In a separate email there was a notice from the bank of her new debit card PIN number. This week: A brand new box of checks for her checking account. Guess who's gonna get EVERYTHING they want for Christmas! LOL Oooo-weee! I forgot to tell you what came in the mail last week & this week!!

Capital One has called me on occasion, too. Nice of them to do that! eBay struck a deal with MasterCard several years ago, and I went for it. I'm actually pretty well set with my Chase debit card -- it gets me everything I need, and since it's tied directly to my checking, I can't overspend. I like that. :-) Maybe if I flew all over the place like you do, an AAdvantage card would suit me -- but since I DON'T...heh. I plan to keep bothering those people until they do sort it out. Fie upon he who tries to separate the Fink from her funds! Hey! Yeah, you have a great deal there for sure. Capital One has called me on occasion, too.

I use it mostly for business trip expenses. I go for months with no charges, then all of a sudden, lots of charges in places like Las Vegas, New Orleans, New York, etc. Evidently they have some software algorithm that flags that sort of thing. Also if you use the card @ the pump & then have a bunch of charges, that flags your account, too. One time they even called & said that my card was in a batch of cards whose accounts were compromised, so they called to notify me they close the account & are re-issuing me a new card/account #. Now I know the last thing you probably want/need is another card, but I would definitely recommend Citi for a card if this is the way they do business :-) Hope you get it all sorted out, luv!

I hope I have some luck. The problem is that PP doesn't honor disputes over 40 days old. It looks like you caught it right away. But then I listen to their yammering on the line while I'm on hold for 10 minutes how I'm "100% protected from fraud" and I think (hope) they might look kindly on my situation. Feh! Shyeah RIGHT Hey I have firsthand experience with evilBay and their customer “service.”

I hope that in spite of the odds, that you get some satisfaction. More than a year ago, I was checking my credit card transactions online and discovered that someone had charged over $700 to it in Mexico for jewelry. I hadn't been to Mexico, and I hadn't lost my credit card. I phoned them immediately and they took it off of my account, closed that account and gave me a new account number. I have no complaints about how they handle this. I hope you have a similar outcome. I’ve never been on Ebay, but have heard of its poor customer service.
