    A couple weeks ago I got hit for $40 on a Friday, $240 Saturday, discovered and reported to security Sunday. Discussed and disputed with bank Monday, credit issued. Snowed in still Tuesday. Drove to bank Wednesday and they printed me a new card and set pin.

    The security monitor outfit tried to reach me on Saturday to question how I made two different charges at the same time 30 miles apart.

    I dealt with the whole mess over the phone and they're supposed to be mailing my new card.

    I got hit for a single $990 charge.

    It was just chance that we were checking accounts and called security. Otherwise they would have locked up the acct since I did not respond to the alert within 24 hrs.

    Lucky you. I had $4K plus in charges over a 3-4 day period on another card.

    When I said those were not my charges. The CSR actually had the ovaries to say. Are you sure and can you prove it? Umm sure can. Look based on these charges I was buying lunch in Detroit for who knows how many people, buying lunch in N.Y for a few others while also being driven around in a limo in S.F. All within an hour of each other.
    Yeah I guess you have a reason to contest the charges. Ya think?

    Little damn disappointed that this MaC-taekwondo place would not let my kid take yellow belt test tonight.

    Any reason they declined? Sounds like they are at least trying not to be a belt factory, so that is good.

    Any "gup/geup" white to 1 before black belt is just for fun. Black belt is where it should get more serious.
    There is upto 9th degree black if they wanna get serious.

    I know it takes about 15+ years from 8th to 9th degrees, but this is white to yellow.

    I am just disappointed but not pissed because we pay less than 20 per month.


    Eta: my daughter was really looking forward to yellow. She was even practicing with 4 white belt kids who are getting tested.
    I told her that I will just drive to aurora or denver to goto many of different taekwondo places whom I knew if necessary.

    I can't find my D&D thread for the life of me, but I forced my way into a campaign and have been playing recently. I'm having fun so far.
