what are reasons your bank account could be on block
It may be that the company placed a block â or a hold â on your card for the estimated total of your bill. Merchants use blocks to make sure you have sufficient funds to pay your bill. If youâre near your credit limit or you have a low balance in your bank account when a block is placed, your card could be declined for additional purchases. To avoid surprises at the cash register, ask your card issuer and the merchant if they use blocking.
