Troubleshooting Declined Transaction – Exceeds single transaction limit – Exceeds monthly total limit – Attempted use where the card is unauthorized to be used (Blocked MCC code) Should a cardholder encounter any of the above situations, a purchase order should be done to accommodate the purchase. Attempts at getting the vendor to split a transaction to avoid the single transaction limit is cause for loss of the use of your card. Global Transaction Banking | pg. | gtb. scotiabank. com
