I hate it when I call customer service and the error was mine…

Tried to make an online purchase. Debit card declined.

I called customer service. I knew the balance, blah blah…

The rep said there was no reason it was declined. Would I try again?

I wasn’t Queen Monster. Did not yell or swear. Did not threaten to have his mother’s teeth extracted without anesthesia. I was just … sure.

As I glanced over the checkout, I saw I had entered the three digit security code incorrectly. Okay, wrong.

I admitted it, apologized and crept off the phone.
