Don't stupid people make life difficult?
Remember: Ignorance can be fixed, Stupid is forever!
A fellow ham here in Kansas City received a bill for his Amoco credit card
with a zero balance and past due charges.
He called and was assured that it was a computer error and everything was
ok.
The next month, same thing another late charge plus interest on the first
late charge.
He called again and was assured that it was a computer error and everything
was ok.
The 3rd month, same as month two.
Another call, more assurances.
4th month, same thing on the bill.
He wrote a check for Zero Dollars and absolutely Zero Sense.
His next bill was fine.
He then cancelled the credit card.
Hey Paul, what is your Address? (just kidding)
