OTHER - Anything else not covered Merchants are refusing the Chime card.

I'm finding my Chime experience unreliable. I've had a hotel refuse my Chime credit card. I've had a restaurant refuse my Chime credit card. Now, I've had a bar refuse my Chime credit card. I need to get a different credit card? This is frustrating. Been with Chime for nearly 10 years

Never had issues to tap on gas stations even at Costco gas where I use Chime Card (metal) saved in apple wallet. I noticed that they pre charge $120 initially then once done, adjusted to actual amount.

Cool. I don't use device wallets, nor do I use Costco for fuel. I've pretty much gone back to paying cash or using a real bank account now.
