Aint that the truth.

I had something like this with my credit card. Calling the automated number it said my current owed balance was in excess of 10 million dollars. I think I owed about 1000 bucks at the time. Took an hour of calls to get that cleared up, as the personnel on the phone had no record of that balance, but the automated system would repeatedly say thats what the balance was

Wow. One time I moved some money (four figures) from my savings account into a CD, and for some reason they reduced the balance in the savings account by the right amount, but credited the CD twice. I saw the error online and went down to the bank the next day to let them know. Now that I think about it, the banker who helped me do that transaction doesn't work there anymore.

I think the bigger story is someone actually got a refund from PayPal.

You also could pay off the national debt and never even be able to tell that you had less money.

Bank do’s well.

I got a call from my CU (Sacramento Credit Union) this morning. She said that I was sixteen days late on a $7 CC balance. So transferred the $7 and avoided a $25 charge.
