Three times in the last three months I have had checks declined at three different stores all which use Certegy to process checks. Each time I try to find out why, I get the same response, your transaction fits the pattern of a fraulent transaction. When pressed to explain, they refuse to tell me what that pattern is (its proprietry).interesting fact is that when my wife writes a check on the same account at the same store, she is not declined.
Given the responses I have received from Certegy (and no help whatsoever in resolving the problem), I can only think of two reasons that they keep denying my checks:
1) Their computer algorithm is incorrect
2) They are harassing me
They deny that either is true but fail to offer anyother explanations.
Anyone know of a good lawyer? Is Certegy an example of a business that has run amok?
