When the Kaplan books came out, B&N charged a number of people (I read dozens of complaints on the B&N forums, which means the problem most likely extended into the hundreds). Since it was a weekend, no one could get it fixed until mid-the-next week. With the groupon coupon that was recently promoted, a number of people had issues with it not working properly or not charging a remainder of a sale to another coupon, hitting a credit card (or just not going thru), plus the issue a number had from trying to get more than one of them. Amazon also had people getting more than one coupon for their promotion, but I never saw a peep about anyone having any issue once they managed to get their codes in email (I just had one of each and no problems so far, but haven't used up the B&N coupon yet ... need to do that, though, so it doesn't expire).

so what does have anything to do with the guys bank freezing his card? How is that Barnes and Noble's fault?
Also Amazon also does single purchase, if you bought 61 one cent purchases on Amazon why wouldn't your bank freeze your card then? I'm assuming your bank doesn't play favorites right?
