link: <a href="http://www.fdic.gov/regulations/laws/rules/6500-1350.html">http://www.fdic.gov/regulations/laws/rules/6500-1350.html</a>
that the poster who said the limit for losses applies to Debit cards as well as
Credit cards was correct. However, I’ll point out that the link does
specifically excluded overdraft protection fees among others so it is still a
matter of Bank Policy as to whether they would refund those. Most do but as I
pointed out earlier why take the risk when use of credit cards avoids this
altogether and also insures the money isn’t coming directly out of your
bank account in the first place?<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
