Merchant charged different than I signed for on my Credit card slip at POS.?

Posted on February 17th, 2010 by admin

How can a merchant give me a slip to sign for one amount, I don’t include a tip on the charge, but the point of service swipe on my card is for the purchase PLUS the tip? Again, this was done at point of service, not after the fact. (NOTE: This was corrected when VISA received the signed slip)

next time you draw a neat line in the Tips field and confirm by rewriting the Total amount at the bottom of the slip.
If you just sign and leave the fields blank is like signing a blank cheque.

It doesnt matter if you left tips separately, the credit card payment in restaurants and services like Blue Van supershuttle allows for a tip to be added every time a c/card is used. It is up to you to protect your own S by drawing the —-across line on the Tips field and rewriting clearly the total amount at the bottom.
If your tip was not appropriate or you were a pain in the S or left no tips the waiters will take care of you
