I noticed Sunday that I had multiple charges from Margaritas show up on 2 different cards that I had used there in June. I determined that one of the charges on the card just posted 3 weeks after the fact. I called American Express on the other 2 charges. After some investigation by AMEX, they determined that the charges appeared to be duplicates(example, one charge included a tip, and a second near the same time did not). Rather than dispute charges and fill out a bunch of forms,AMEX just wrote them off on the spot. Having ate there over July 4, it appeared then that they were having problems with supplies. What a lot of these restaurants do is sign up with credit processing vendors and get advanced money using credit card receivables as collateral. It looks like to me that the processor they were using froze up their charges to retire old loan balances, and in an effort to get the restaurant resupplied, they switched vendors and in the process of getting more credit advanced, numerous old charges were rerun. I feel bad for them, it looks like a big administrative screw up that was unintentional.

About three weeks after we all ate there one Sunday night, a duplicate charge showed up on all of our credit cards / debit cards. It turned out that the restaurant changed their credit card processing company and some how that days charges were run through a second time (three weeks after the original charge) during the transition. The restaurant was very embarrassed and quickly contacted the processing company. In a few days the charges were fixed.

No established business would do this on purpose and its next to impossible to do in error. They clearly have a rouge employee on staff running the cards a few extra times and taking an equal amount of cash. The register balances for a few days and when people finally complain the crook is gone or has gone quiet. In these days of call-in and take-out there are plenty of transactions with “card not present” being approved by processors. All you gotta do is snap a picture of the card or write down the details of the card and then find a POS machine to run it thru.
