    A friend of mine got fucked by a local pizza place after the waitress changed a tip by adding a comma and a few zeros.

    Pizza place refused to refund, credit card company wouldn’t cancel the transaction because it was too large. We had to start a social media campaign to shame the place into refunding him. They turned a $15 tip into a $1,500 tip.

    So I definitely appreciate stuff like this

      Sounds like they need a new credit card company. Mine wouldn’t even hesitate to cancel the transaction because it’s so obvious at that point.

      What credit card company? That seems like such blatant fraud.

      Once my friend put total in place of tips. He was very drunk that day. He went over next day to talk to them and they obviously fixed it. That seems like common sense to me.

      Tip cash.

      If there is no mechanism to convey cash, the request for a tip is likely questionable.
