...moral of the story, if you use a debit card your bank, any bank, will put a hold on your checking account for a designated amount for a period of time depending on how long your stay is. Using a credit card at check-in holds the banks money. I usually use a credit card at check-in and pay for essentials with my debit card....signage should be set up at check-in reminding people who use our resort, owners/renters alike about the hold when using a debit card for check-in. This is where the confusion was created. It is just good customer service to notify our guests/owners of the problem when using a debit card.
