What is the name of your state? FL
I recently stayed at a hotel in New Orleans for two nights, and when I booked it online I had to pay a deposit of 171.37(one night) the total for the hotel was 342.74. When I arrived at the hotel I checked in and signed near my check out date. I checked out on 2/09/05 and everything was fine. Recently I checked my checking account and they swiped my card at check-in for 222.38!! This resulted in over draft fees of 60.00. Now, my balance when I checked in was 171.37. I used my debit card for the room and my boyfriend's card was for incedentals. There was nothing said about swiping my card for that amount and the slip I signed when checking out was for 171.37. I called the hotel and she said that I authorized my card at check-in, which I did for 171.37 not for 222.38. Is that considered and unauthorized charge? Is there anything I can do.
I would appreciate any help.
