Credit cards and tipping
Last night my wife and I and some friends went out for Pizza. There was eight of us, including two kids. The menu said that a tip of 15% would automatically be added to parties of eight or more, and we had eight.
My wife and I picked up the tab - $86. My wife signed off on the credit card slip for $18. The couple that was with us left behind a tip.
This morning we wake up to find that we were charged $102, not the $86 my wife had signed off on. It seems to us that they added this amount on after we had left.
I could care less about the money - it's not a huge amount - but I'm stunned that they felt they could charge our debit card after we had left for an amount we didn't agree on.
Should I be pissed off and go speak to the manager of the pizza place?
