It takes a while for it to add for some reason. It's happened to me too. Don't worry, it'll add.

$9? Damn. I can't remember the last time I paid less than $25 for a hair cut.

Service places will run the initial charge through the system immediately.

Then an adjustment with the tip will follow 2-3 days later when the actaul paper receipt is verified.

Happens all the time when paying for pizza with a credit card and you tip on the CC. $20 pizza and you tip $5? You will see a pending $20 transaction, the final amount will be $25 when it does clear 2-5 days later.

This. I always see the retail amount as a pending charge, then the final amount a few days later.

$0 haircuts for the win. My ol lady gets the buzzer to me, plus I get to sit in the kitchen naked while I do it. I feel bad for you people who are 1.) paying to have your hair cut and 2.) don't get to be naked while it happens.



:D

Never had that happen, but once on vacation my card got charged for only the tip amount. Dinner for two, $9.

I am a hotel manager but sometimes I ring people up in our coffee shop there have been times when someone wrote in a tip and I never bothered to put it in because it requires an adjustment to the payment in the POS system and its not worth the trouble if I am busy.
