Bank Error in Your Favor - Page 2 - GoFuckYourself.com

i think some people are forgetting that banks know a bit about money

If it is easy to find out where the money went , they will do it, they certainly wont be reviewing cam footage to check , if it doesn't come out automated they wouldn't waste the time to investigate a loss of < $500 , they aren't stupid , it wouldn't be cost effective.

Was this a bank ATM of just a money vending machine somewhere?

It's not cost effective to have a $8/hour employee review a tape to get a couple hundred back?

A "friend of mine" got extra money from an ATM, before, and it never ended up being a problem.

I think thats a bit different than a machine mistakenly pushing a few extra bills. That sounded like a system wide problem and they would have records.

It's been a week and half and no change on the statement or my account.

Was the ATM at a bank or was it one of those inside a gas station or grocery store? If it's the bank, give the money back. They're going to get it back either way. If it's one of those inside gas stations and grocery stores. Keep it. They should have better engineers building their equipment. Plus that $3 fee they charge every time you withdrawal....just call that a payback.

All in all the machine gave me $540.

I personally have no problem keeping a bit of a huge banks profits considering all the fees they've charged me - would you keep it?

Fuck Yeah!! Love it! Happened to me years ago, went to bank drive thru to cash an $800.00 check and get a money order for $800.00 simple right....

well the teller hands me back an envelope with a money order for $800.00 and $800.00 cash! Of course I did not realize this until I had pulled off and was around the corner!

Of course by the time I got home from the mall buying clothes,computer accessories and eating steak and shrimp there were 25 messages on my voice mail from the bank teller accusing me of stealing from and robbing the bank!

The phone messages were so threatening and hostile, it just made me spend the rest of the $800.00 on more novelty items!

I am like wait you made a mistake and you accuse me of being a thief.... F U and the horse you rode in on!

So yes I get very tingly when a bank "error" lands in the peasants favor! I know if I had half the money back that I have paid in questionable "bank fees" I would be very very comfortable!

Screw the banks before they screw you!

Years ago - like twenty years ago - I got two weeks of pay, $600, and put it into the ATM. A few days later I my card was a declined. Go into the bank, they claim they never got my check. Huge hassle for me, bounced fees all over the place, had to have the check canceled and my boss had to reissue, it was like two weeks of hell - and I had to borrow money to get by.

A year later BOA contacts me - turns out my deposit "fell through a crack" in the ATM and they found it when they removed the ATM to be serviced. Fuckers.

This is why I do all my deposits in person. Sure, it can be a pain in the ass but not as big a pain in the ass as when a check goes missing or someone lifts some cash.

I would never put a cash deposit into a drop but I know a friend who did. $1k and when the bank entered it in they claimed it was only $700.

Always in person, always get a receipt.

very true. I've had two bank errors in my favor and each time I was tagged with the extra amount. Ask any banking person, if the money is not yours you'll get a nice negative charge in the amount.

You do realize you have publicly admitted theft and/or fraud, right?

For the record, it's happened to me and I've returned it. Different strokes for different folks, I guess.

Close your account and move it to another bank.

I am sure they will just take it out of your account once they see the video.

This guy has no problem stealing money as long as he feels he can rationalize it. Nice. I'm sure this thread will get you some great business. Kudos to you on exercising some really great judgement.
