Debit card declined despite having funds - can't reach bank customer service. Help!

I found a way to solve bank card declined issues, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=523F-U_qads

Ugh, been there done that. Banks can be such a pain sometimes. Have you tried going to a branch in person? Sometimes that's the only way to get things sorted out.

This happened to me last month! Turns out my card was flagged for suspicious activity because I made a large purchase. Check if theres any weird charges on your account that might have triggered a freeze.

Have you tried using the banks mobile app? Sometimes you can unlock your card or see whats wrong through there. Worth a shot before dealing with their awful customer service.

I found a method to get someone on the phone. I used this site's (claimyr.com) calling tool that dials the phone menu, stays on hold, waits for a live agent to pick up, then sends the call to my phone. It does cost $20, but it works. Here's a video about it: https://youtu.be/0UZGuPWGErg

Here's what you need to do: 1. First, double-check your balance online or via ATM to confirm you actually have funds. 2. If balance is good, try calling the number on the back of your card (not the main bank number). 3. When you get through, explain clearly that your card is being declined despite having funds. 4. Ask them to check for any holds or freezes on your account. 5. If they can't help, ask to speak to a supervisor. 6. Document everything: who you spoke to, when, and what they said. 7. If all else fails, file a complaint with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. Stay calm but be persistent. Good luck!

have u tried turning it off and on again? 🤣

Banks are the worst. I swear they make it hard on purpose so they can charge us fees. Anyone else think we should all switch to crypto?
