[QUOTE="seriously, post: 445109, member: 11920"] Lower that limit baby! Better yet, take it away and give him a prepaid card that he can only use the amount on the card and that's it. I think my wife is a long lost sibling of your husband's. She tried to use the trust account credit card (rarely used because it's a trust account for oldest difficult child) and had it denied 3x. Did she think to call the credit card company? or ask the business to contact the approving agency so she could clarify things? NO. Instead she just kept trying to use it and then charged the charges to our PERSONAL accounts. ARGH. I was driving when I got a call from the automated fraud prevention service saying the charges had been denied. I pulled over, caller her and she's like "yeah, they keep denying it." I nicely asked if she had tried calling the number on the card or asked the business to call about the denial? Oh, she says, there's a number on the card? they can do that? It was too late by then but I drove around screaming about her playing dumb and being an idiot about money for a good 10 minutes before I calmed down. This is a court supervised trust and I have to justify every little thing and appearing to pay ourselves from the trust funds is a big no-no. So we will probably have to absorb those $100+ charges somehow... Yeah, the manipulation thing drives me crazy. They are not dumb people. Why do they think we should treat them like they are - and conversely like we are too when they say stupid things like that????????? [/QUOTE]
