<prompt> Human: Some friends and I went out to our local hookah bar grill. We ate, smoked, and drank well. There was a small dispute with the server about a re-pack on a hookah. I asked if a re-pack was free, and he nodded yes. But then got charged double. I let it go. The day after my wife checked the bank account and noticed it did not match the receiptwhich we physically have. I posted about it on Facebook, and tagged my friends that went with me warning them that our server could of gave himself some extra tip. My other friend said he was double charged.The bill came out to:Subtotal 40.64Tax 2.85Gratuity 15 6.10Total 49.59My bank account showed the statement is 52.07I called my bank right away, they said they can not do anything about it while its PENDING. Only after it goes through. I used a debt card. I want more than my 2.50 back now. What can I do? And what can my friends do? Is this server scamming every customer that walks through the door?  <response>: Restaurants often automatically authorize an amount that would include a 20 or more tip to make sure it would be covered. This is what you would see in a pending charge.Once the bill actually is posted to the card it might be different, based on what you actually tipped if anything. I wouldnt freak out until the charge has actually posted. Which typically takes 3-5 business days.
