We transferred my savings account over to Wells Fargo on February 6th. Despite the amount of crap that they have ALREADY given me, I'm not going to move it back to F&M, mostly because it's way too inconvenient. However, I'm never ever doing business with Wells Fargo again. Unless I want to be lied to and overcharged.
The minimum for an account with Wells Fargo is 300 bucks, else you get charged three bucks a month. I opened it with $240. I was told explicitly at the time of opening that the fee would be waived if I got it up to spec in, say, a month. And it was indeed gotten up to spec in a month -- in less than a month, in fact. Exactly thirteen days later I was in the clear. Ergo I wouldn't get charged, right?
Wrong. $2.07 "pro-rated service charge". For not having enough in my account for the first thirteen days of its existence. When I was told that I wouldn't be charged.
Mom called the bank, but they wanted to talk to me... I'm probably going to have a residual panic attack any second now, because I truly fear the phone. But anyway. Had to repeatedly give my account info, had to wait to be put on hold, and basically jumped through a bunch of stupid hoops, but eventually talked to someone,, and she told me that I basically had to go back to the person who told me I wouldn't be charged, and ask her to refund it, and that it was then at her discretion as to whether to bother refunding.
Um. Right. Go back to this complete stranger and beg her to give me my money back. When I'm scared of people. Suuuuuure.
I'm not going to bother. The terror of talking to this person is not worth two bucks and seven cents. But I'm never opening another account with Wells Fargo ever again.
Notice that I was under the limit for less than half the month, but I was charged more than half -- hell, more than two-thirds -- the monthly fee?
Jerks.

Mar. 11th, 2002 03:17 pmGot a nifty little pencil grip dealie at the campus bookstore today. Got it home and then realized that it isn't symmetrical. So it works in the right hand only. Guess who's left-handed?
There's a buck fifty I'm glad I didn't actually have to waste...

Mar. 11th, 2002 03:49 pmPencil sketch of a drawing I'm working on. Very dirty and unfinished; after I do finish, I'm probably going to ink the sketch and then penciltrace neatly over the inking. This is just what I have so far.
( Oh, and did I mention that this picture involves -- A NAKED GIRL? )
( Oh, and did I mention that this picture involves -- A NAKED GIRL? )All its presets have reset themselves for the second time in the year or so that I've owned it. This wouldn't be such a problem except that the display is nearly illegible -- I have to hold a light up to it and move around till I hit the correct angle -- and so I sort of depend on my stations being where I told them to be.
91-X, which broadcasts from San Diego -- 200ish miles away -- is coming through almost perfectly, with just a bit of static over the music. KROQ, 25-ish miles away in LA, isn't coming through at ALL.
There's a classical music station taking up three position thingies in the 103s, which simply does not exist -- there's one at 105.1, and one at 90somethingpointsomething, but not one in the 103s.
KRTH 101.1 has apparently moved over to 101.3. The station that should be at 101.3 is not in evidence.
*listens to KROQ on her other stereo, which comes through her headphones crappily but at least is receiving from Planet Earth*
