I understand returned payment fees for checks, but I’ve never been charged for having a credit card decline.

Stupid of me to sign up for auto-payment when I use my credit card for gas, I guess.

    Yeah that checks out. I’ve found out about this in a doubly infuriating scenario.

    I was home abroad on a holiday, and they billed me for my regular monthly service. So naturally, i got slapped with the 25$ rejection fee, and then my bank decided to pay the overdraft on the second attempt, resulting in another 45$ in bank fees for that too.

    Everything in the US is purposefully designed to fuck you over.

      You have to opt in to overdraft protection and fees. Its not designed to fuck you over. You literally signed up for the service and can cancel it at any time.
