she was checking here visa statement off with her reciepts yesterday, in february she purchased $40 gas which she allways does, she has been charged for $107 worth, guys and girls allways check your purchase at the time, it was at a certain gas station in godley rd., greenbay, seems that she has paid for someone elses gas for a week.

She should have checked at the time to save hassle.

Talk to the bank.

I've never been a victim of credit card fraud, but workmates have been, and they have all found Visa excellent to deal with.

she has a receipt for $40, it obviously has a transaction number on it, and that transaction number ties in with the statement which shows a greater sum than the reciept
.
she needs to take both to the bank, a fraud has taken place and her visa conditions will allow for reimbursment

I think I dropped $20 at the gas station yesterday.No-one will be honest enough to hand it in though.

skin1235, Apr 16, 3:23pm
the bank will investigate how it came about that a receipt could have a fraudulent amount or a different amount on it than the actual transfer manifest did, they will have police assistance if they consider it to have been deliberate

First approach the garage manager with your statements, if no luck approach the bank. Only the bank will know if said garage is regularly investigated by them. Tell the bank, if the garage has a clean record they will want to keep it.

go the bank first; let them deal with it, if they have a dishonest client they need to know and sort it out, if you try the SS first and they refund it , it doesn't actually get back to the bank so it could continue with other customers

I am guilty of often signing Visa receipts without fully checking them, but generally agree the pump amount with the attendant.
As my fuel bill is normally around the $100 mark for diesel and also for petrol, when I check the the visa bill, I doubt I would notice an error, BUT, I do log all fuel and mileage and have done since 1964, so I could check if I needed to.
I'd go back to the petrol station first, but I'd also ring Visa, regardless of the outcome.If your wife was overcharged, someone else was undercharged, but they may not notice.

Did she put $40 worth in or did someone else fill the tank to the top for her!

sifty, Apr 16, 6:20pm
or did she just buy another pair of shoes she doesn't need.!

trogedon, Apr 16, 7:22pm
Sympathy to OP. The worst rip off I??

mals69, Apr 16, 7:25pm
Sure she not buying condoms in bulk .

smac, Apr 17, 9:47am
Or 40 litres with a discount docket.

tgray, Apr 17, 9:49am
She didn't get 'ripped off'. Human error.
Obviously paid for someone else's pump fill at the same time.
Bet the other guy is smiling.

mals69, Apr 17, 10:03am
Think your Mrs screwing round on you and just using paying for the extra gas as an excuse, buying bulk loads of ribbed condoms . attendant can see on the counter panel whats up - paying for another persons gas lollol talented woman to be able to drive two cars at once , no wonder her bit on the side into her .

why do these MB's always lower to the lowest common denominator,
and therefore absolutely no use to #1

mals69, Apr 17, 10:23am

smac, Apr 17, 10:31am

"Think you should have gone to spec savers" Is the reminder of the attendant panel not offering some info bizziebody !

taipan4, Apr 17, 11:00am
skin1235, night boss, richardmayes,trogedon, and smac, have all posted useful tips and info but you mals69are not in that category perhaps you need to go to spec savers, andyou are getting personal as well which I was not. Why do people insist on degrading themselves to personal attacks
