Stupid Banks!!!
ARGH!!! I transfered money yesterday morning from one acct to another and I did not have anything else pending,.... so I knew I would be fine ... I checked yesterday after 3:30pm and again at 5:30pm to double check I was still ok... I get on this morning and I am overdrafted plus negative $32 !!! WTH...... I called my banker and asked her how is it that it never showed me negative , it just automatically charged me a overdraft fee? She went on to explain about different clearing houses and what not.. what gets me is that they tell you at the bank that anything after 3:30 pm doesn't post til the next day but yet this posted after! Stupid bank!~

Girl I know that's frustrating. It's crazy how they can charge you more money for not having any money. Do they think money grows on trees? (Apparently.) I am sure we've all been there, though. My hubby set our bank account to overdraft to my credit card now, so we don't get those horendous charges (as often). We try to be careful but it's crazy how expenses add up so quickly.

Very often, I've been able to talk my way out of these stupid charges. Maybe you can call back and insist that they remove it, tell them what a good customer you are, and go on and on. They can credit your account. I do this with the APR on my credit cards and if I happen to pay a bill late, I usually can get the charge removed. It's funny, because each time, they say this is the one and only time they can do it.
