Got home from a very nice outing with naudiz and pjack, belatedly celebrating my birthday with a buffet lunch, to find three letters from Wells Fargo in my mailbox. It seems that when I made two ATM withdrawals on Thursday, there was already a pending check that overdrafted me. Of course, the machine was happy to give me money and a slip telling me I had a positive balance; it was only at the end of the day that I got dinged three times at $32 a pop.

F---ers.

One of my brothers is coming over now to loan me some money until Monday, when I can pay him back out of savings. I just want to get the balance positive RIGHT NOW before anything else happens. (I'm not going to bother arguing with Wells Fargo; I already know my chances of swaying them are as slim as the various peace protests having any effect on this administration's policy.)

(Update, 8:14 - new balance, $21.01. That will do for now.)

*sigh* I had a similar thing happen to me when I first got an ATM card in the early 90's. I made a deposit, had the receipt tell me it was going into my checking account, told me my balance... then I went home and paid about a dozen bills. Two weeks later, 9 of them bounced because the bank machine glitched and put the money into my savings instead. Grrrr!!! I had to pay hundreds of dollars in fees and they didn's so much as apologize. I thought I would never use the ATM again at that point, but alas, I worked from 8 in the morning to 11:30 at night with just enough time between jobs for travel, ATM's were my only option. We hates the Bagginsessss! The Bagginsesss always win, cursssse them!
