I pay a lot of my $$ towards my debt. We use $2k per month for everything including food, gas, toys, clothing, and bills. I havent checked the account in a while but last time i checked, there were $96 left in it. I took out 20 euros a few days ago so I knew the balance would be less. My wife got home from her parents house today and went to taco bell to get food. I got a bitching call from her saying the debit card was declined. I am on staff duty so I left the SD deck and went to my office. I checked the account and there were $72 in it. No other transactions and no other pre authorizations. I have to talk to the bank tomarrow but what I can go to get my wife off my back? Sure there was not a lot of $$ in the account but I had no control over the debit card. I am switiching back to USAA as soon as i leave Germany. I never had a debit card declined with them even when I went over the limit once.
