Credit cards for Charlie Cards

[hahathor.livejournal.com]

I attempted to use my Visa card to purchase a Charlie card at the Davis Square T station on Friday evening. After about 10 minutes of trying to make the machine acknowledge my credit card, a worker informed me that the system wasn't acknowledging cards. I purchased a card using the last of the change in my wallet. Today I checked my credit card on line & see that I have been charged $10 for the Charlie card I didn't receive. I guess the system was working well enough to charge credit cards, just not well enough to provide Charlie cards for the charged amount. I was wondering if anyone has had this problem, and if anyone knows who I'm supposed to contact about this.

That sucks. I read this (http://www.bostonist.com/archives/2006/12/02/charlie_doesnt_take_credit.php) the other day. I hope it helps.
