Re: Harebrained Disco Idea!?!

@GApeachy , correct. This method is not considered a cash advance but a regular purchase though i wouldnt want all my transactions showing cash removals. Something might trip an algorithm and then you might find yourself dancing to Rhythm of the NightSmiley Wink

Edit: Algorithm or not...this is new to me.  What do the transactions look like when you take money at the register?

Hey, what does it look like on a stmt? Is it coded or something in a certain way?

Re: Harebrained Disco Idea!?!

I took $60 off my Disco at a high end grocery store once and Disco sent me like 3 "was this you???" emails and app alerts. I think this feature sets off warning bells internally and I don't see how pulling cash would equate "spend" in their algorithms.

 

I'd also be weary of the 4056-T's, at least until we get some solid DP's on the triggers.

Okay, this is an answer I needed.  Never seen these kind of alerts so I guess my AU's have never done this.  I always told them no Cash Advances, then to find you can STILL get money..how annoying.  Thank you @ChargedUp for this post.

 

Why is it always $60?  Is that just a thing with Discover?

Re: Harebrained Disco Idea!?!

I think $60 is the upper limit for one transaction.

Unlike Wally or Sams $100, Disco likes to keep us groundedSmiley Wink
