Oh no. I hope somebody doesn’t wipe out the debt of everyone who has one, or both of their cards. That would be terrible.

Seems the issue is with First Data.



"First Data Corporation is a financial services company headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia, United States. The company's STAR Network provided nationwide domestic debit acceptance at more than 2 million retail POS, ATM, and Online outlets for nearly a third of all U.S. debit cards."

Per the Wiki.

I would not use my card to buy marijuana because it's against the Federal law.

These banks are breaking the law if they accept MC and Visa.

Re: BREAKING - Visa And Mastercard World Outage!!!
Not all businesses charge your account in real time so cards will work in many locations regardless of connection to a financial institute.

The gas pumps at my corner store only charge your account one day of the week. I can have a zero balance in a bank account, buy a tank of gas and they don't ping the account for money until Friday.

A Richmond, VA toll road had one booth with a problem--it held all credit bank card transactions for six weeks until it was rebooted a few years ago.

People actually were stupid enough to try to blame the highway department for their overdrawn accounts.

If I charge $200 on my bank card this month and it hasn't come out of my account next month I have sense enough to know it will come out eventually at any time when least expected.

Until your military service has required you neutralize enemy combatants and invaders in the defense of your country,
don't presume to tell us that have defended you that you don't support every shot we fired to eliminate that enemy.

I think it’s the processor. The grocery store earlier and the gas station both have veriphone terminals that were down. We have a different brand here and no issues with anyone’s cards.

I checked in on this and FiServ took credit for the outage and they are one of the larger payment clearing houses for MasterCard/Visa.

FiServ indicated they had an ISP outage which impacted the service and service had mostly been restored.
