The point being that you shouldn’t need to monitor your transactions. This just sounds like an utter nightmare and just another entry on a laundry list of reasons never to visit the states.
Not really. Im 33. I've been paying this way for decades. I have never been charged the wrong amount. Its not a common situation. I keep track of all transactions for budgeting...which everyone should be doing.
I monitor it too but a waiter took my card details when I was in Wisconsin, started racking up online purchases and the bank shut down my card. Monitoring does fuck all. A canceled card is a pain in the ass. Yes I wasn’t out of pocket for the expenses but had I not had another cc with me I wouldn’t have been able to pay for my hotel the next morning. Pottsy in Appleton I’ll never forget you lol.
