My Credit Card Has Been Rejected

John Smither
My credit card has been rejected,

So I had to call the helpline,

I was determined not to be dejected,

There was not a problem, all would be fine.

I was asked as I was redirected,

Which service do you require?

What number have you selected?

For what reason is your enquire?

Have you used your card on the internet?

It looks to us like an unusual transaction,

What are you buying? What are you trying to get?

I cannot buy because of your intraction.

I was trying to buy some Christmas candy,

For my wife, it was to be a surprise,

My wife has a sweet tooth; it would have been fine and dandy,

Now I will have to venture out into the cold and use my eyes.

Instead of using my plastic as I wished,

I am now freezing and counting through the dollar bills,

From now on in my eyes your company will be dissed,

And the card gathers dust as I am unable to use it at the tills.

    What they tell me is 'caution' results in unexpected and seemingly capricious events - like having my card rejected when I know it is good. I wish they would call me first - as they once did in the not-so-distant past.
