This is why I use cash for everything but online purchase.
I've come to the conclusion that VISA must have a list somewhere of certain places that it refuses if there's an outstanding hold on funds through the check card. I've had one vendor refuse the card telling me it's refused by the issuer when I can go online and see no holds and plenty of funds. Then five minutes later another vendor accepts the card with no problem.
