How do I use the Bank of America Visa Emergency Relief Contingency Card to pay at gas stations and restaurants?
Gas stations – The best way to pay for gas station purchases is to hand the Card to the attendant who will complete your transaction at the register. If you prefer to pay at the pump, you may be declined if you do not have enough funds to cover the cost of a full tank of gas. Restaurants – Some restaurants verify that the Card has enough funds to cover the purchase, plus a 15 to 20 percent tip. If the amount remaining on the Card is not enough to pay the tip, tell the servers you will pay the tip in cash. Otherwise, simply use the Card for purchases at retail stores.
