I seem to recall reports of it taking longer up to 30 days. My issue with the Debit card isn't that though, if I'm cutting it that close I don't need to be going on vacation. My issue is the added risks with the Debit card.We've used a debit card on occasion. It does tie up the funds in your account. Though a credit card does the same and depending on your current balance and limit it could push someone close. I haven't notice with a debit card where they took the funds and then later refunded them. It seemed to work in the same way with the authorization falling off after five business days. Though I suspect it depends on the financial institution.
