PA Liquor Control Board Alerts Customers to Credit Card Processing Error

HARRISBURG, Pa., Feb. 29, 2012 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- On Tuesday, Feb. 28 the Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board became aware of a credit card processing error that may impact customers and licensees who made purchases in stores between Nov. 23 and Nov. 28, 2011.

While processing daily credit card data, duplicate charges were posted to customer accounts which reflect their original purchase from Nov. This processing error affects only in-store purchases and not items purchased through the agency ecommerce website.
