Made a mistake this morning and took out $200 from my credit instead of savings at the atm and put it right back as soon as I saw that I had made that mistake. Decided to phone them to get them to not charge me $3.5 for a stupid misclick. They refused because they could not see that I had done that,even though they could see the transactions before and after. Was like wtf you want to piss me off over $3.5!

Think how many people misclick in a day and those thieves rake it in with no remorse or sorry. The dude was even snotty with me.

Did I mention I hate banks.
You lost only $3.5 due to misclick.Imagine if it were bitcoin,you would have lost your entire $200 if you had mistakenly sent it to someone.
I love bitcoin but at the same time, I dont hate banks.Both can co-exist
I second this statement, even though banks are cheap and downright thieves most of the time, Bitcoin is much less forgiving of misclicks. Some banks are beneficial, mine has absolutely no fees, and is online banking and phone support only. ATMs are scarce, but still available. But that just goes to show, some banks can make a profit off you just having money with them, instead of charging some ridiculous amount of "service fees".

My uncle told me once, "cows are serviced when they are inseminated by bulls. service fees are the same as us getting screwed by the system."
