Man sues bank of America over poor customer service

The title I gave this post does not due this article any justice in describing how insane this situation is.

Dalton Chiscolm of New York is suing Bank of America for 1,784 billion, trillion dollars. I have never even heard of such an amount of money before, let alone for one man to be expecting that much money to be deposited into his bank account:

"Chiscolm in August sued the largest U.S. bank and its board, demanding that "1,784 billion, trillion dollars" be deposited into his account the next day. He also demanded an additional $200,164,000, court papers show.

Attempts to reach Chiscolm were unsuccessful. A Bank of America spokesman declined to comment.

"Incomprehensible," U.S. District Judge Denny Chin said in a brief order released Thursday in Manhattan federal court.

"He seems to be complaining that he placed a series of calls to the bank in New York and received inconsistent information from a 'Spanish woman,'" the judge wrote. "He apparently alleges that checks have been rejected because of incomplete routing numbers." "

""These are the kind of numbers you deal with only on a cosmic scale," said Sylvain Cappell, New York University's Silver Professor at the Courant Institute for Mathematical Sciences. "If he thinks Bank of America has branches on every planet in the cosmos, then it might start to make some sense. Judge Chin gave Chiscolm until October 23 to better explain the basis for his claims, or else see his complaint dismissed."

I'm just glad that no one is actually taking this nut serious.
