Can you share some really bad banking horror stories?
One of the worst banking horror stories I've heard was about a family who had their mortgage foreclosed on wrongly. The bank made an error in their records, thinking the family hadn't made payments when they actually had. The family had to fight a long legal battle to keep their home. Another instance is when a bank closed a customer's account without any prior notice just because they had a few too many small transactions in a month.
Sure. There was a case where a person's entire savings were wiped out due to a bank's computer glitch. The bank wrongly transferred all the money to another account and it took months to get it back. Another one is when a bank froze an account during an important business deal because of some minor paperwork issue that could have been easily resolved.
