Is there no way to get in on another $5,000 today from the same store? (perhaps by using passport instead of drivers license)
if you do $500 at a time then they won't need to swipe your license

Would not recommend to do too many $500 swipes on 1 CC.. Fraud alerts will be a'blazin!

If you're really worried, you can call and put a spend notification on the account t. That usually works.

I did call and explained the fraud department that I am about to make a $5,000 pharmacy purchase and still got a fraud alert at CVS. When I called Citi and told them I am in the store they wanted to verify me by calling my home phone.
These people from Philippines did seem to get it that you can't answer your land line in the store :-[
Airlines sending me "We're in this together" emails.

Bruh, where were you when my suitcase weighed it 51.50 pounds?

With Chase it doesn't always work, but I personally have never had a problem after calling.
With Citi I had the same thing, but I said I'm in the store and asked if I can verify with the billing address or SS#, and they were fine with that.

Yes. $200/day, $1000 total per month. I think they have autoload.

Very true. But I'm sure people will figure out some new way to meet the threshold.
