Merry Christmas, Mr. Scrooge...

So my big plan this holiday season has been to buy my family a new TV. Something largeish with the terms "widescreen" and "HD" in the name... I go look at my online banking thing today to see if I have enough money in my account to cover such an expense to find a charge from a CD duplication company that I haven't dealt with in two years. For a rather large sum of money too... I've unleashed the fury of my banks dispute resolution team on them (I've paid them enough in overdraft fees at this point, I figure they owe me...) but it still won't be resolved until after New Years. The way I see it, if they're going to fuck with my christmas, I'm going to keep harrasing them personally until they send me a check for the money too, that way I'll be ahead of the game. :D Pity that wouldn't actually work...

Bummer, but I'd say its yout own fault for waiting until now to make a large Christmas present purchase.

That really sucks. In the mean time find yourself a 65" side from a box or something and draw the t.v on it. Then your family, from a distance will think you got the t.v. This is only temporary of course;) So will you get the money back for sure or is it still unknown?

Good luck.

It wasn't going to be a CHRISTMAS DAY present exactly, I wanted to make sure everyone was happy with the decision. That's why I hadn't bought anything yet. I think I will get the money back through my bank within a few weeks and I'm going to keep hounding the company itself in the hopes that maybe they won't realize that my bank is already dealing with it. I seriously wonder how some companies stay in business these days...
