Inconvenience? What? You mean there are people running around filling
their tanks with a credit card, that will not have another $10 available on
their credit line?

The $50 limit is set because it serves the vast majority of customers without
undue inconvenience of holding checking account money or tying up unnecessary
credit.


I'm not buying it, and neither would you if you thought
about it. In the meantime, it costs me, and all others with big tanks
another few extra minutes when we fill up.

I doubt you will find much willingness on the part of most consumers to require
more of their money to be held to save a moment to restart the pump for thirsty
gas guzzlers. Try using online debit.

*That* is inconvenience, and I
will not go back to a place that has not kept up with the times and made a
higher preauthorizations.

That's certainly your right. Since you don't shop at gas merchants where they
have only a $50 limit at least you don't have to deal with it when you do buy
gas.
