Default Re: Too many bills, not enough brain space!

Well, I am the one that said about the taking more than you allot and a perfect example is this: My newspaper. I am on a monthly thing with them ONLY because it is so much cheaper. But they have screwed their system up so bad in the past year that on average at least every other month they draw out the amount 2 times. One month they deducted it 3 times. Within 3 days! Then they credit it back a few days later. But what if I didn't plan for that or my check didn't credit as quickly? then I have a bounced check. They say it is a glitch in their system that they are trying to fix. Another one: a program I signed up for and then cancelled, I had a cancellation number and they still deducted the amount. fortunately I check my balance daily on line. Boy did they get an earful. So, YES they do happen, more frequently then some realize.
