Today, my credit card got blocked. Apparently, my bank thinks buying a $130 flat iron online is suspicious. FML

That's weird. I bought one for $200 and they didn't block it.

I hate it when banks (or any companies) do stuff that deliberately screws over the customer. "Suspicious"? What, did they think you were planning a robbery? Did they think that somebody took your credit card- yet they ONLY bought a flat iron? Honestly, if my bank did that to me I would go in to the bank, publicly let them know what f*ck ups they were, and I would gladly let them know that bcuz of their bs little stunt, im switching banks to a bank that actually supports ME instead of actively tries to screw me over.

No. they think it is dumb, and they are punishing you for it.

It's not you buying the item that's suspicious, its the location of the product/comapny that usually triggers the bank. They think your credit card got stolen because a transaction was made most likely at a farther distance from where you would be, thus triggering the block of your card.
