rossislider Report post Posted March 13, 2017 Maybe I am being overly optimistic, but I think we are going to start see the credit card chagrining for the elk and antelope draw Friday morning around 7:00-8:00 AM. Went over my checklist today to make sure I am ready: All credit/debit cards used for the various members of my tribe are current and have plenty of funds? Check Set text alerts for any charges $90 or greater on all cards? Check Called all bank and card companies to have a note put on the account to approve any and all charges from Arizona Game and Fish? Check Cleared my work schedule Friday morning so I can check my cards every 30 seconds? Check Going to be a long week… 12 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

muledeerarea33? Report post Posted March 14, 2017 Told wife that divorce may happen if I here complaints for..... Scouting, shooting, watching elk porn on my phone, talking about said porn, scouting instead of actually hunting for turkey, buying misc gear I may not need, and taking week before the hunt off thru the end of the hunt. Told my boss the sane thing. His answer "you have a problem!" My response... "My problem is people that don't understand lol") 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Slayer Report post Posted March 14, 2017 What makes you guys think they will start hitting cards on Friday?? I think they would want at least a day or two after the credit card update deadline to make sure everything in the system is set and ready to run. I'm thinking monday or tuesday next week they start hitting. However, I will be watching for a hit on Friday as well. Good Luck Fellers!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm thinking monday or tuesday next week they start hitting. However, I will be watching for a hit on Friday as well. Good Luck Fellers!! The last two draw cycles happening the following morning are why. No need to wait a few days, evething is probably already in the system and most likely has been for days. In fact, the longer they wait, the more problems they will have. Good chance the draw has already happened, but can't start charging cards till the cc update deadline passes. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lancetkenyon Report post Posted March 14, 2017 BS meter set on high for Thursday when people start the "my card got hit!" Check. Other than that, Greyghost85 is in the exact same boat as me. Except elk too. Haven't had an elk tag since 1999 either. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
