The short answer
The registry records Harris Teeter as a possible interpretation of HARRIS TEETER #00. This descriptor-to-company association has not passed claim-level evidence review. Compare the exact line, amount and posted status with your own receipt or account activity; the name alone cannot confirm the merchant or whether you authorized the payment.

Why is Harris Teeter on my statement?
Unreviewed registry note: A charge labeled HARRIS TEETER #00 on your bank or credit card statement indicates a transaction at Harris Teeter, a popular supermarket chain operating across North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, and neighboring Mid-Atlantic states. As a regional subsidiary of The Kroger Co., Harris Teeter operates full-service grocery stores along with in-store pharmacies and fuel stations. The digits following the store name represent the specific retail branch where the sale originated.
Unreviewed registry note: This billing descriptor appears after everyday in-person shopping trips or online grocery orders placed via the Harris Teeter mobile app or website. Similar to other regional supermarket chains such as Albertsons, digital curbside pickup or home delivery orders often trigger an initial authorization hold slightly above your estimated total. This temporary buffer covers weighted produce and item substitutions, before settling to the final receipt amount once packed.
Unreviewed registry note: If you do not recognize the dollar total, start by checking your paper receipt or logging into your Harris Teeter VIC rewards account online to view recent digital purchase records. If an authorized user on your account recently bought fuel or groceries in the Southeast, that usually explains the line item. However, if you reside outside the store footprint and nobody in your home shopped there, someone may have cloned your card number for in-store checkout, requiring an immediate fraud report to your card issuer.
What to do if you don't recognize it
Unreviewed registry note: If you see a Harris Teeter charge but haven't shopped there, it could be a sign of a compromised card or an authorized user making a purchase.
Unreviewed registry note: Review your recent receipts or ask family members. If you still cannot identify it, contact your card issuer immediately to report potential fraud.
Can I dispute a Harris Teeter grocery charge?
Unreviewed registry note: Yes, if you believe the charge from Harris Teeter is fraudulent or unauthorized, you can initiate a dispute directly with your credit card issuer. Make sure to first check with any joint account holders who might have made the purchase.
Does Harris Teeter charge a holding fee?
Unreviewed registry note: In most cases, Harris Teeter does not charge a holding fee for regular in-store purchases. However, online grocery orders or pickup services may place a temporary authorization hold that drops off once the final total is calculated and settled.
