>>510694574 (OP)It's Mastercard that's primarily behind this. I wonder when Master Card's reckoning will come? I have a friend that used to work for Master Card's call center on the V.I.P. line and she told me their company policy is to enable financial abuse for high priority clients. There was a certain "celebrity" that would call in every day and "check in" on what his wife was spending money on and if she spent it somewhere without asking him first (like Starbucks, or McDonald's) he would start screaming at the phone agent and make them turn her credit card off and put a new password on the account so when the wife inevitably called in later crying because her card wasn't working they'd have to refuse to help her because she didn't know the password. Eventually the husband would call back in and say she "learned her lesson" and tell them to take the password off and turn her card back on. My friend tried to report it to her supervisor a few times saying it was financial abuse and they were obligated to report it to the police but she was told official Master Card policy was not to report crimes that involved their V.I.P. clients.
