The bank just found $225.44 in underpaid interest from two years ago and cut me a check...for the estate I am trying to fucking close this week. Now I have to deposit the check in the morning and write two new ones and fucking FedEx them with Saturday delivery to the beneficiaries and hope they can get them deposited and cleared before the end of November. It's Thanksgiving next week.

FUCKING BANKS! How can you miss paying interest? It's all computers. Seriously. How the hell did they miscalculate that? And how did it take two years to find?

SunTrust by the way. Just so you know.

And it's not lost on me the irony that I'm pissed to be getting a check.

come on man. the "computers" didn't make a mistake, it was a person who misentered something and the auditors found and corrected it.

just like Community Chest. Bank error in your favor, collect $200.

It's like a lot of places where they are trying to cut costs by getting rid of the older experienced people who know what they are doing, and replacing them with people who have little competency but are cheap.
