    Welcome to banks, some of them just suck.

    I'm in Australia so it isn't as bad as the image, but 24h pending time for a purchase is fairly normal here. Anything that isn't direct person to person seems to have some kind of wait to it, although if I directly pay a friend 100 it's instant.

    It might mostly be the banks, but I know of one gas station near me that hits that max hold, and then seconds after I’m done filling, the charge quickly switches to 30 or so dollars I put in. Whereas the other gas station that hold stayed there for almost a day. My guess is intermediary card processors play a part as well. I also learned place number 2 sells fake BIC lighters, so I don’t go there anymore.
