credit card authorization refused


Explanation:
the problem I have with the 'overdrawn' explanation here is that you can't 'overdraw' with a credit card, in my experience - either your payment is authorized or it is not.

Example sentence(s):
  • Authorization has not been given for this credit card transaction.
