    i know banks are a law unto themselves! and they don't know what they're actually doing. What i always remember was in a previous job we had an overdrawn account at work, the bank mucked up payments in so i argued that they owed us on account of the interest they were charging us when we shouldn't have paid it. They literally couldn't figure out how much that would be so i plucked a number out of the air (i never gave up the arguement) and they accepted it without query! How can they not know what interest rate they're charging and then work out how much they charged unnecessarily?

    I think that just about sums them up LT!

    Because I am having the Italian Stripe put on and they can't do it until Tuesday.

    Was supposed to be getting it today or tomorrow.

    I am the most impatient person in the world, so am working hard on not being really mad, am failing miserably though!
