I was just checking my bank account and saw that I was severely over charged at a bar I went to a couple of weeks ago. I used my check card (which I try not to do and will never do again at a bar) and made two different orders during the night, closing out the tab immediately after both orders. Two different charges show up and the second one is right ($23.00). However, the first one should only be between $15-20, but instead it's for $214 . While I generally try to hang onto receipts, of course I can't find this one.

Do I have a leg to stand on? I called Wachovia and they pretty much told me since I don't have the receipt, my only real course of action would be to try and talk to a manager at the club. I'm just kind of worried that he's not going to give me the time of day and I'll be SOL.

Anyone have experience on dealing with this sort of thing? Maybe how I should approach the situation with the manager?

Spare me the lectures. Cash FTW, I know.

Crap, meant to put this in Wallstreet.
