A receipt obtained by WSYC ABC 6's "On Your Side" shows that *Bishop's debit card was charged $1,021.50.* *For context, this far exceeds the typical costs of a footlong sandwich at Subway, which tends to cost between $6.50 and $12.* Bishop told ABC 6 that the charge left her feeling "stressed, overwhelmed," and, at one point, *she couldn't even afford groceries because her "account was negative."* *Despite her efforts to address the situation directly with store staff, Bishop was told to contact Subway's corporate office. She told ABC 6 she tried this multiple times but to no avail.* Bishop also told the Ohio broadcaster that she later returned to the Subway store, located inside a gas station, only to find it had closed. According to the store's website, it is "temporarily closed" for the foreseeable future. "I'm just trying to make ends meet at this point in time," Bishop told ABC 6. Even flagging the issue with her bank was fruitless, leaving Bishop feeling hopeless, ABC 6 reported. *As of last Friday, almost two months after the purchase, she still hadn't been refunded for the sandwich.* Subway and Bishop did not immediately respond to BI's requests for comment. *Lee Anne Lanigan, the director of consumer relations and investigations from the Better Business Bureau, told ABC 6 that Bishop has options to resolve the situation.* *She could use the BBB's dispute resolution process or even escalate the matter by filing a police report for theft.* *Lanigan said that had Bishop used a credit card instead of a debit card at the counter, she would have been better protected.* https://www.businessinsider.com/woman-charged-over-1-000-subway-sandwich-no-refund-yet-2024-2 This is pretty shitty and it's crazy she hasn't been able to get it fixed yet after nearly two months. <cite>Simon_Gruber posted [p:979050721] in A $1000 Su...
