They do it at hotels, so I'm not surprised at all.

I had this happen with my PayPal debit card...I didn't even think of it and ran it through as credit at FoodCity Gas on N. Broadway and even though I got a 30.00 gas purchase they put a 75.00 hold on my account and it put me over my PayPal limit and then debited monies from my regular bank account. Didn't cause much trouble or anything but it was extremely annoying and I would have been mad if I didn't have the money in my regular account to draft from and I had gotten overdraft fees.
This is definitely upsetting. I've never been the biggest fan of debit cards to begin with.

That is all we have...I don't do checking...I forget too much so with debit for some reason it is easier with me. I do love having my PayPal debit so that way I don't have to transfer funds so often and such...I can just use my card and get the money from my PayPal...

How can they do this? If you use a debit card then they are essentially getting the cash right then.
if you enter your p.i.n.#.
