Thanks to the "bank of Mom" helping me out, I've got an available balance of ~$150 (with more waiting to clear, earmarked for utility bills once it does).
The first time my card didn't work, early last week, I thought it was the amount of the hold that was the problem, but unless I screwed up the spreadsheet in my PDA, there was enough in the account then as well ...
... unless they've started reserving more than $100 lately instead of $30?

It would make sense for them to do that. Figure that some of the real gas guzzling SUVs and mini-vans on the road may hold 20+ gal of gas and at $3+/gal that is a lot of money without looking at the 3.30+ for premium (and expected to go higher).
