Boro-Park eatery keeps credit card customer blacklist 

According to a source, a prominent Boro-Park eatery keeps a list of customers that he will not serve. The proprietor of the eatery has told our source that he has had a nice amount of customers that would eat at his establishment regularly and charge their tab to a credit card. He further explained that at the end of the month these customers would dispute the charges with their credit card company, leaving the owner of the eatery to foot the bill. The owner said that his only way to deal with this widespread problem was to blacklist these offenders from being allowed to eat at his place.

Comments:
Good for him. There's no reason that he should have to serve those who steal from him.

kol hakovod.

i know of a business in boro park that photocopies & enlarges copies of bounced checks & prominently displays for all to see.

(owner assured me that before he hangs it up, he gives the checkbounce a fair amount of time to straighten it out first)

 

Chaptzem, how about checking out some of these stories before using them?

Contrary to popular belief, calling up a credit card company to dispute a charge is NOT the same thing as stopping a check drawn on your account.

A credit card company will not automatically deny a charge simply because it was disputed.

The merchant (i.e. the restaurant owner) can offer some proof of the validity of the charge like, gee, maybe a SIGNED RECEIPT.

 

people are disgusting i mean do they think they are stealing from a non jew cause its a credit card company well their wrong

Tell that business owner that two wrongs don't make a right.

While the writer of the check is obligated to pay the money owed for his purchases, the owner's remedy is NOT to publicize his bank account information thus subjecting him to the likelihood of identity theft.

Wouldn't that be something? Customer stiffs you for $50 and then sues you for $100,000.

 

send them to Masbia if they want a free meal!!!!!!

I guess you are going to be sued because you cannot read. The restuaranteur doesn't publicize or advertize whon is blacklisted. he just doesn't serve them. not grounds for i.d. theft or a lawsuit

 

ID theft. A theif has a code of ethics. They will never steal from another theif. In any event who would want to forge a check for an account with no funds.

Which part of "I know of a business in boro park that photocopies & enlarges copies of bounced checks & prominently displays for all to see" was confusing to you?

 

It is actually very easy to question a charge and the credit card issuer is obligated to go along with the consumer and even repeatedly reopen the same claim for 12 months. We are a business that currently is being victimized by one such character.
In our case the cardowner did not remember the charge even after being swiped and signing the slip. You can be sure that if this cardholder returns he will be asked to pay cash only.

 

Usually you pay for the meal after you eat, so how does he blacklist them?

 

This is BIG news!
