Just in case this ever happens to you

[HAULN-SS]

So this morning, I stopped and got gas which was about 45$ for a fillup. The pump says "pay at the pump or inside first." So i used my card at the pump, went inside to get a drink and sandwich and the gas station owner says "Sorry, 5$ minimum"
and I said "yeah, i'm covered, i just spent almost 50$ at the pump"....

"sorry, 5$ minimum"

So I tell them to forget it, left my shit laying there and left.

There is the first place on Visa's website about minimum amounts, and the second place is in the merchant account rules for business.

So now I'm reporting them to Visa, and hopefully they lose their merchant account, or get fined, or something else. If they get to keep their account, I'm going to stop in there and buy a pack of gum on my card every day for a week.
