I tried to make a purchase on 10/13 and my order was declined but Avenue still put a $225.82 hold on my bank account. I called and spoke with someone who said the hold would be removed in 24 hrs and I could try again without problems. On Tuesday 10/14 I tried another order and the same thing happend, my order was declined and Avenue placed a $221 hold again. I called Avenue and they could not tell me why the holds were there or why no orders went through. I have called every day, even today 10/16, and still no answers. My bank cant release the money until Avenue removes the hold. Over $400 stuck with no reason.
