Big Banks Big Dollars. Wells Fargo: both accounts
I recently received a wire transfer of some money.
They charged the person making the transfer $30. This from a Wells Fargo "private account" meaning there are big bucks in this account.
They charged me for receiving the transfer $15. Maybe being nice because there aren't big bucks in my account. Sure.
This is absurd! The problem is the fees come just under the radar of "is this worth my time to gripe to a big bank"?
Mad. But am I mad enough???
Susan.

My new 65" ULED TV is so clear that the 1080P single looks kinda crappy...oh well, guess I'll have to keep drinking until it doesn't bother me anymore. Hmmm...might be time to break out the KGB and get past this.

One of my trains in Suisse left 8 minutes late. Wow that is significant.
Less than 10 years ago, a Swiss train left the Zurich station while we were loading our equipment...the doors closed and the train took off leaving us standing there on the platform.

Customer service/satisfaction run amok.
I recently bought a new 4Runner. I like it. I've been a loyal 4Runner owner for many many years.
The sale was easy. I had to wait awhile for it but I knew that when I ordered it.
It arrived, I paid. I'm happy. Thanks all around. (I even rang the f'ing bell at the dealership because they have this "thing" about ringing a bell when a sale is made)
Now, in the 10 days since purchasing I have been INUNDATED with "customer satisfaction" follow up. From the dealer, the salesman, the lady I gave my check to, local and regional Toyota, maybe even Japanese headquarters. And then all the peripherals. Now everything comes with satellite radio so a whole bunch of customer service/satisfaction stuff to get that system all initialized.
Toyota, I'm happy. I really am. I've always loved my 4Runners. The radio works just fine.
Now, please go away. I don't want exhaust tips, special mats, cargo drawers or locking hubcaps. I just want to open my email and not see that funky bull horns logo.

Windows 10 thinks I misspelled "Wouldn't", "again", "doing" and "Instead".
I'm OK with being corrected, but if a word's spelled right, I don't want to see a f*#king red line under it indicating a spelling error.

Here's my first world problem that popped up just yesterday. Took my brand new Head Monster 88s out yesterday and the very first ski run had one of them release after I slammed into a bump skiing normal and like usual. The snow was super fluffy and getting my ass up and back into the ski was a lot of effort! I had last years Rossignol Soul 7s still in the car for backup but I'd woke up late and the the car was parked wayyyy on the other side of the parking lot and I didn't want to stop skiing to walk all that way. Unfortunately, and I'd also left my Swiss made Stockli Stormrider 95s at home and they'd have been perfect for the conditions.
Hope that keeps the spirit of the thread alive:-)

The newspaper vending machine sells the weekend edition for $2/copy.
The weekday edition costs $.75.
On Monday, the man who "services" the machine, takes the money, replaces the Sunday with the Monday rag, then leaves without changing the price selector.
And I show up with only three quarters.
It's a no news, good news thing.
