Using a Debit Card @ Hotels

OK now your seasoned traveler almost 99% of the time will use an actual credit card, but.... if your a hotel that accepts locals i'm sure you are use to the dreaded Debit Card Phone call!! :(   What every single person that uses a debit card at hotels don't understand is it will hold the amount of the room... and then some!! For instance if your room charge plus tax all comes to $120.00 well my hotel will authorize that plus $20.00 in case something is stolen, broken, a bunch of long distance phone calls are made etc,etc.... Well it does that every night of the stay, so if you stay 3 nights it will hold $60.00 extra for the stay... And that's what leads to the most extreme phone calls you will ever receive in the hotel business!! Someone calls and says " You all charged my card $140 and now my bank accounts overdrawn and my banks charged me overdraft fees!! Well the first thing I want to say is.. If you don't have 140 bucks in your bank account why the hell were you staying at a hotel anyway?? Do any of you all receive phone calls like this or is this restricted to my neck of the woods??
