    Let me tell you for fact, she went to atm and it said £101 availble but when she tried to withdraw she was denied, her online bank showed availble £101, so she rang asda/bank and they told her it is reserved.
    The world is full of usury.

    Use microsoft excel to write down all money in and all money out.

    If it were reserved it would show in available balance. Basically, you are lying. Any reserved money is taken out of available balance, but not balance.

    No need to shout dear.

    If they were doing this to customers week in week out those customers would be seriously out of pocket and would go overdrawn, let me explain.

    I have £400 in my bank account to last me 4 weeks,

    In week 1 I do an Asda shop for £100, I should have £300 left, but you say they will take my money twice, so I only have £200 left.

    Week 2, seven days later, I do an Asda shop for £100, I should have £200 left, but you say they will take my money twice, so I have £0 left.

    My account wasn't low, but you think I wouldn't have noticed that I should have £200 left but I have £0?

    The scenario your sister experienced is not the rule, it is the exception. If this heppened to every asda customer they wouldn't have any.

    The fact that there are lots of threads about it on the internet proves nothing, the 100's of 1000's of customers this isn't happening to aren't going to post about something that isn't happening, are they, duh.
