Having been screwed multiple times by credit card companies in the three
years we've been a vendor (at the hotel), I can tell you that credit
card
companies are run by the biggest pack of scum on the planet. They will
screw anyone and everyone, without provocation or excuse, to make a
nickel.

Now you're coming off as the whiney one. Birds of a feather with the OP?

Jay, Jay, Jay. Haven't you killfiled this asshole yet?

Nah. I *like* arguing, in case you haven't noticed...

Matt, do you ever say anything nice?

When he first joined this newsgroup he was kind of reasonable and
interesting but as he's got more comfortable here he's really started
showing us all his backside.

This thread started out as someone simply taking a shot at the newsgroup
on the off chance that the pilot who got a fillup on his card is honest,
made an honest mistake, and might be on the newsgroup. Small odds but
worth a try IMO. From that according to Matt he's become a whiner who
doesn't take responsibility for his actions, etc etc. I'm starting to
think the self-righteous preaching is a more important hobby than flying
for Matt.

Yes, when people talk like responsible adults.

If you'd rather a ditzy PC discussion, I suppose I could fake that for a few
minutes.

GOD!! Speaking of assholes; Jim is the licensing board.

I try to point out; Jim bloats his ego.

Well, we may both be whining, but we're certainly seeing the issue from
different ends of the telescope.


I'm whining? I adhere to contracts and absorb my losses and don't advertise
them AND I'M WHINING?


He's worried about getting screwed by a fellow pilot who used his unused
credit at the pump. Others have suggested that he inform the credit card
company, in an effort to receive credit for the "unauthorized" charge.

Fine, he should. But first he comes in as "Hey, did one of you rip me off??"

A adult would say what happened and ask "What should I do? Should I call the
CC company? Talk to the FBO?"

Jay, where are your great "conservative values"? :~)

BTW, my initial poiint was your jumpoff the create the strawman.

I, on the other hand, am speaking from experience with dishonest card
holders who dispute legitimate charges, and are backed up by their
criminally complicit credit card companies.

Geez, listen to yourself. What does that tangent have to do with his case.
He screwed up royally and ANAICT, never accepted responsibility for that
screw up. Would you accpt such behavior from your kids, though they're MUCH
younger?

If the original poster informs
his CC company, and they actually credit him back the disputed amount,
they
WILL charge the FBO, no questions asked, sight unseen. It is their
standard
policy -- and the FBO will have very little recourse.

Bottom line: CC companies NEVER lose.

They not supposed to lose, they're third parties to the transaction.

If they're that bad, why not stop accepting CC's?

BTW, want to guess how much they lose to CC fraud each year?

It never ceases to amaze me how people can rationalize _anything_.

Matt, do you ever say anything nice?

Yeah, I do.

Maybe if you'd read more of my posts before shooting your mouth off you'd
realize that.

AOPA has every reason to inflate the numbers. I wonder what the FAA says.

AOPA says 618K pilots and 88K instructors.

I did say that your post was rather silly, posting it to a Newsgroup
that
is
frequented by maybe 100-200 pilots out of the 750,000 active. It
sounded
like whining to me.

Where did you get the 750k number?
There haven't been that many active pilots.
The number I heard last year was around 600k.

That is an excellent point. I have had a couple of do-gooder posters chew me
out for maintaining that this guy was accusing someone of the board of
stealing his gasoline - yet clearly these guys didn't take the time to read
the original posters Subject line.
