I received a Reason Code 203 - what does that mean and what can I do?

Reason Code 203 is a hard decline from the issuing bank and the reason why is not provided. You should request a different card or method of payment from your customer.

My customer says that funds were taken out of their account, but I did not receive a 100 reason code and I did not received funding. Why?

This means a soft decline has occurred, corresponding to reason code 200 or 230. A soft decline occurs when a transaction has been authorized by your customer's card issuing bank but rejected by Bank of America due to a business rule setting. The successful authorization placed your customer's funds on hold, but settlement has not yet occurred. You may choose to reject the sale by requesting an authorization reversal, which will remove the hold on funds from your customer's account, or you may continue with the sale by requesting that the transaction settle.
