Goddamnit Wells Fargo

This is the third time Wells Fargo has just randomly decided to shut off my cards.  I appreciate that they're trying to prevent fraud - honestly I'd rather have them err on the side of conservativism - but come on.  I notified them I'd be in Tokyo for a minimum of 6 months before I left, and lo and behold, they turned them off as soon as I arrived in Japan.  That was fun.  But I forgave them because it was better than had it actually been fraud and they hadn't shut it down.  Good thing I had the forethought to cash out in yen enough for the first few days. 
Then they shut my cards off again at the end of March, which was weird, because there weren't any big redflag purchases that preceded it...
and just today they shut them off again.  I'm starting to think it's a cyclical thing.  Like every 29th, they just start turning off cards at random or something. 
Goddamnit.  I need to eat, people.  *wields angry fist of impotent indignation*
