They really should have let you and the other customers know what was going on. It could be very embarassing for some if there card was refused.

Your bank should have sent out a letter before they decided to started using the new procedure. Some people could have been in a real bind.

Sometimes business' have to act fast and apologize later. Sounds like they are trying to protect their customers. Your sister may check with the bank. The limit for commercial accounts may be greater than for personal.

i'm sure she called the bank, i don't see why she couldn't write a check at Sam's too?
I know they had to act fast, but this is the second time within months... they better change some things in this bank before people go elsewhere... i'm worried about my credit cards now...

I was checking to see if a certain check cleared my credit union and found this flashing message:
