imho newp, because when trying to use said card at checkout the kid stopped the transaction called the manager over and my transaction was refused and cancelled..but guess what? i wasn't using that card..i was using a different one but because it looks the same they assumed i was trying to use one of their timed cards.I don't mean to question your version of events, but is it not possible that the store simply set the 20 mins thing to encourage people to buy shit while they're waiting?
I know when I worked retail that 90% of the offers, promotions, etc were just to get people in the door in the first place.
i shit you not.
went up the street to their next location and had no issue..went back to that store and searched out the manager..i spotted that fat little hamster..he saw me coming..was taking to an employee who ran when they saw me coming so fast tripped guess they thought i had a gun it was actually kinda 'terminator 2 - judgement day-like' (robert patrick character) as i was walking faster and faster to get to him on the other side of store..i told him that i knew what they we doing and my attorney would be in touch....he swallowed very hard, turned red and thought he was gonna have a coronary..perhaps shite his pants..lemmmmmmmmstuttering..seeeeeee your card..newp..too late..you had your opportunity.
all this is on video, too..no denying it..kept all my receipts and cards..it's all the proof i need..additonally, when i was getting my refund, i presented my card and she pretended like she didn't hear me..she pulled the timed card out..again, i handed her my existing card 'oh no..i have to put it on this..it will mess up the balance on the card you already have' what a lying sack of shit! these cards are totally rechargeable..it even fucking says it on the back..
even though the bible belt is as far south as orlando, there's no shortage of fire and brimstone bible beaters in sofla..this company is a good ole boy southern company.
they love to tell people how to live here and social safety net is practically non-existent because we get people from all over so the residents who have been here like me since 1985, get fucking screwed.
