29 Times People Spotted Infuriating Things That Drove Them So Mad, They Just Had To Share The Frustration

I agree. This is awful and should not be permitted.

Absolutely. And although not as common just yet, "low balance" fees should be illegal as well.

It was recently made illegal in Australia (at least in my state it was)

Yes but alas the Capitalist Government is against the people so we must Break our chains alone

It should have been illegal, however, if they hadn’t, it could have caused an economic crash that could’ve made the pandemic worse for everyone

People should be taught by their parents and teachers to read and honor contracts and NOT live beyond their means. If banks had to stop their business then their employees will also get reductions in pay. The pandemic is not an excuse to steal.

You stated "requested it". The question I have is, did many of the public know if they could actually request it? Or was it a need to know basis? They don't need to know about this, so we're not going to go out and inform them to request it type of thing...

Yeah I'm not buying it, you could've given the fees back yet you clearly did not. You and your employer and all the other banks out there took $12 BILLION from people who most definitely needed it most considering most overdraft fees end up being charged to people living paycheck to paycheck. The fact that they still took those fees when they could've been returned isn't the bright spot you seem to think, it's honestly worse than just taking the fees in the first place. I'm just going to say that banks are shitty in all ways there are NO bright spots anywhere.

Yeah, great. Not good enough. People were, and STILL ARE suffering. All that has changed since the beginning of the pandemic is the fact that prices for everything has become astronomical. And yep, if you weren't a bank manager, you could see how charging ~$40 for a single $2 dollar overcharge is completely f****d. On top of that, multiply that a few times and you'd have a clearer picture of how banks ruin us. BUT! We need banks and paperwork for credit, so that we can be denied loans for housing that makes us pay 0.5-1.0x the amount in rent. I understand you thought you were saying something helpful, or explaining something, all you did was explain what everybody already knows. We're better off risking mold, mildew, fires, losing everything in cash, then risking all of our money paying Banks, to take our money when we have none. Dude reevaluate your moral or ethical stance on this, I'm not sure which field for you it applies.

Any system can be changed - you just have to ask a developer to change it.

I like that your bank did that, don't like that it had to be requested and the only way to know would be to complain. A lot of people don't feel comfortable complaining to the bank. The bank should have made it automatic or assigned a large team to go through each account. That being said, the hate you got here isn't fair. You don't run the bank and don't make the rules

Ah! So This explains the number of Karens walking around looking particularly smug during the pandemic…

THIS

A lot of conservatives can't even get that far.

Conservatives don't even read.

Apparently not this guy

People who aren’t idiots

This is not just a conservative issue. Coming from a liberal.

Everyone who upvoted this!

That's the problem with a lot of people nowadays. Because media twist their headlines to further their narrative is rampant and most people should be aware of their tactics and read the whole article. Usually in the middle or near the end of the article you find the truth. It's so sad that journalists can't be honest any more and just report the news without any bias.

You put that very nicely - my first thought was "infuriating"

It's sickening and disturbing that they will receive payment for that food but no one will get to eat it.

My first thought was "unsurprising" - it's what I expect from Starbucks.

If it went bad you can’t feed it to people.

Yes, we have food charities in the US. But the food must be in unopened cans/boxes/packages. I used to work in the restaurant & banquet industry. Instead of throwing perfectly good food away, the staff usually had a feeding frenzy & ate it, so it wouldn’t be wasted Lol

There are dogs of all activities levels, and some definitely shed more than others. The issue here is the previous owner jumped into the responsibility of ownership without performing due diligence on what they could actually handle.

It's a working dog breed. It would in the very least need space and activities outside of the house. I don't actually think surrendering animals is a bad thing. That's what people are *supposed* to do when they realize they can no longer take care of one. I have to assume op is angry for the reason the dog was surrendered, which was probably that some idiot tried to make a house pet out of a working dog in the first place.

Let’s say that a little louder so they can hear it through their sheets . . . NO!!

The more of us who are mixed race the better. 🎶 what we need is a great big melting pot 🎶

To the people who just insulted me to my face NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO...
