SPLIT TRANSACTIONS (26) Can I pay for part of a purchase with my FORT BRAGG FEDERAL CREDIT UNION Card and pay for the other part of the purchase with another type of payment? Some merchants do not allow cardholders to conduct split transactions where you would use your FORT BRAGG FEDERAL CREDIT UNION Card as partial payment for goods and services and then pay the remainder of the balance with another form of legal tender. If you wish to conduct a split transaction and it is permitted by the merchant, you must tell the merchant to charge only the exact amount of funds available on your FORT BRAGG FEDERAL CREDIT UNION Card to the Card. You must then arrange to pay the difference using another payment method. Some merchants may require payment for the remaining balance in cash. If you fail to inform the merchant that you would like to complete a split transaction prior to swiping your FORT BRAGG FEDERAL CREDIT UNION Card, your transaction will likely be declined. HOTELS, LODGING, RENTALS and HOLDS (27) What does it mean when a merchant places a hold on my card? When you use your FORT BRAGG FEDERAL CREDIT UNION Card to pay for goods or services, some merchants (typically car rental companies and hotels) may authorize the transaction in advance. This places a temporary hold on your card for the amount of the sale plus an additional amount or percentage greater than the sale amount depending on the individual merchant. 9

10 If your transaction is for a high dollar amount, some types of merchants may place extended holds on your card for 10 days (up to 90 days for car rentals). Once your purchase goes through, any excess holds will be removed from your card. If you begin a transaction that requires a hold on your funds and then cancel the transaction, there still may be a temporary hold on your funds for up to ten (10) days or more. CAUTION: Please note we cannot manually release authorizations or holds without a certified letter or fax from the merchant. (28) Can I use my FORT BRAGG FEDERAL CREDIT UNION Card for a reservation at a Hotel, other Lodging, Car Rental or similar purchases? Yes, but these companies may authorize, or place a hold (as described above) for much more money than the actual cost of the service to be provided. For example, the Rental Car Company or hotel will not know if they need to charge you for additional expenses like damages or extra days until you return the vehicle or check-out of the hotel. These authorized funds will be held and unavailable for you to spend until the final transaction is posted to your card. This means that you might not have access to these funds for as long as 90 days. To avoid problems our advice is to first call the company and ask them what their policy is regarding the use of prepaid debit cards. CAUTION: Please note we cannot manually release authorizations or holds without a certified letter or fax from the merchant.
