I absolutely feel you anon, I worked in a bank branch for years (I'm still in banking but non-customer facing now, thank heavens). The amount of people I have had ask why we didn't personally call them to let them know they were overdrawn, as if I had nothing better to do. Or the people who would want me to log in to online banking for them and tell me their password, no matter how many times I told them that I shouldn't know your password.

Special mention to all the worst business clients, working at a bank you very quickly learn that some people don't deserve to run a business. Every year like clockwork at tax time, we'd get business owners who wanted us to print out a year's worth of statements and every check they wrote for the year, for free, and got mad when we charged them. You own the business! It's your job to keep track of your expenses for taxes, not ours! One guy refused to use online banking so his 'genius' business plan was to show up at the bank around noon, ask what his balance was, and if it was positive at the time he would then come in the next day and complain if he got charged overdraft fees. His argument was that he 'couldn't be expected to remember how many checks I have outstanding.' Once we opened two hours late due to heavy snow and a business client tried to argue it wasn't her fault she was overdrawn because she could *only* come to the bank during the first two hours of the day and she didn't want to use the ATM so we should reverse her overdraft fees.

I am sorry for both of you. People suck, and somehow think they’re entitled to be complete arses to the rest of the world.

AYRT

Oh my gosh, I've experienced exactly what you're talking about with regards to statements and checks. And not only with businesses, but with ordinary people, as well! "I need a copy of every check I've written over the past two years. What do you mean, you charge for that?" We charge for it because we already *gave* you free copies, via the statements we send you every month. You could have saved or printed them, but you made a choice not to do that, and now you are asking for us to give them to you a second time.

*His argument was that he 'couldn't be expected to remember how many checks I have outstanding.'*

Boy, do I feel you on this one. It's depressing how common an attitude this is.

In any case, much commiseration and solidarity, anon.
