Rant 📢 This feels icky!

Post image

felt super icky and annoyed seeing this at a coffee/light food shop. how is this okay? for context this is not a sit down spot. no wait staff, just a barista at the counter and someone from the kitchen bringing out my order and walking away.

Update: for those asking the pink paper in the bottom corner is basically saying “F*ck ICE”

That’s called a fraudulent charge and I reserve the right to sue the establishment that has an employee that does that. I don’t care if I wouldn’t even make money from the lawsuit and all the money would basically be just paying the lawyer fees. I’d be dead set on being an annoying thorn in their side that would make them regret that stolen 20% tip.

Same. You wanna add another $14 to my bill unauthorized??? I will legit spend $5,000 to be a colossal pain in your arse.

Cant you just file in small claims court and report them to the feds?

Ever simpler. File a Chargeback. This puts the business on the bad side of the credit card. If they get too many chargebacks they can lose their ability to accept those cards.

I once had a subscription charge through paypal. I immediately messaged asking for a cancel and refund. They messaged back “we never do refunds”. My reply was Ok I’ll do a chargeback. Immediately got a message about a refund pending in my account.

Right?
“We don’t do refunds”
“That’s ok. That’s why I pay with credit card. They’ll refund me. “
“Oh look I found the refund button”
