We have already passed 600 registrants in 24 hours!! That's amazing. However our credit card authorization company has a limit with the dollar amount allowed to be charged in a 24 hour period (to avoid fraud), we have breached the limit and now they have paused our ability to continue with charges. For this reason we're disabling the portal until they re-establish the charging. We are working with them to get an exception to allow us to continue charging. should happen shortly.

Not a bad problem to have! The registration portal should be back up soon.

It is a bummer that the Portal has to be closed for awhile, but incredible on the numbers they have taken in.

While I'm glad that everyone gets a kick out of it... ;.)

Interestingly we exceeded the limit by quite a bit, they just don't have an automated way of stopping those charges. Their bank admin went to check status of the account and noticed we'll almost double what they (and we) expected and shut things down without a word... Banks.

We have them on the phone now. Comedy. Of all the things we tried to think about... missed this one!

Props to you Alex and the entire team that is involved. A lot of your time and effort are going into this and it is clear.

Good Lord, have I mentioned today that I hate banks?

Working through it. Painful.

Brad and I already personally guaranteed the fees / chargebacks and that was still apparently not enough.

I've got about $5 in loose change on my dresser if that will help. Good job. Get a cold drink and relax and enjoy the ride!

I always felt we were small time compared to what banks typically deal with. But I guess $100K in 24 hours is a big deal when they thought we were a "little" car club.... Working through it. Just glad tomorrow is a work day and not a weekend. Bankers hours are driving me nuts...

Sounds like a bank change is in order. Nothing gets a banks attention like threatening to take your business elsewhere. Maybe a Credit Union would be best. Banks just suck!

We are working on all fronts. Have some good help from some Viper owning bankers, too!

This is FUN! (not!) but - like everyone has said - a good problem to have.

Easy on the banks fella's - some of them write our paychecks and allow us to own Vipers ;)
