EXTREMELY EMBARRASED

I was extremely embarrassed when I got to the till at clicks to pay for my goods, only for my card to be declined, I have never been so embarrassed when I knew there were sufficient funds in my account, the card was swiped twice, and I got an sms twice that funds had been debited. I have not checked my statement yet to see if they have really been deducted from my account, clicks said I must come back if they have for a refund. I am so embarrassed, I would of been *****ed if I was at a restaurant and this happened. Every time I went to Absa they suggested I change to the cheque account as swipes are free - I have not been drawing cash for this purpose and I was left In a situation which could have left me with a bigger problem.<br> <br> Please could you check why this happened, and will it happen again?<br> <br>
