I just transferred the small economic stimulus payment we received and noticed just before submitting the transfer that the amount of the transfer had been reduced by 1 cent. I had to change it twice to make it stick. I will now see if the full amount makes it to my bank.

Has anyone else transferred and noticed a one cent reduction in the amount? Not much for me, but a lot for the company chosen to handle the money if it is widely applied.
 
Wasn't there a movie plot where someone devised a way to steal a nickel (or maybe it was a penny) from every bank transaction? That could add up to real money, pretty quickly!
 
In the movie Office Space they did something very similar.
 
I am not sure of what this "transfer" thing you are referring to is all about. I received mine by Direct Deposit based on my last and this years Tax return that I filled. I always use the Direct Deposit because it works. Did you not file income taxes in the previous 2 years? If that is the case then OK I get. But most folks that file do so with the Direct Deposit as it clears the IRS and banking institutions far quick than by requesting a debit card or a check...cr8crshr/Bill:usflag::usflag::usflag:
 
Superman III with Richard Pryor. That scene where he shows up to work in a Ferrari (?) still makes me laugh.
 
PA .did direct deposit and then went to putting money on debit card. Said because of fraud happening? So now its loaded on the debit card that was issued. Then you have to transfer to your bank account, I guess or use the debit card. Mine was screwed up a couple weeks back by someone misspelling my name and now I cant transfer on the web site. I have to take the card to the bank to do a transfer! Ruffcut
