Yeah I wish my credit union had more controls. I appreciate being able to set transaction limits and GPS-limited transactions, but I want daily limits and also a transaction timer. For example, I don't want more than one transaction in a single five minute period. That would eliminate all instances of accidental double-charging.

You still sometimes get transactions and fees within seconds of each other you - i.e. I had an ATM charge me the amount of cash withdrawn once and then the fee as a separate transaction.

I get that you want to stop identical transactions within 5 minutes of each other, but I have a feeling there may already be stopgaps in place for something that simple.

There aren't. I recently had to get cash back from a Wendy's after they triple-charged me in the drive-through.

I’d like to have new charges queue up like the Hey email screener for me to approve or deny.
