Wow I didn't know Sprint had an attitude. These big companies like screwing the little man. LOL@lemonade stand.

    I went through a similar situation with Sprint a few years ago, although the amounts in question were vastly different.

    Hey Jim, Loved your Sprint story. Come on ANYBANK, put some money into my 3 Bank and Credit Union accounts!

      The next time I visit Aruba and other islands, maybe I should open up a bank account and get instructions on how to wire money to it in case this happens to me.  How suspicious would that look, that I just happened to have an off shore account after "accidently" getting over $1 million? I'm sure they would drive themselves crazy trying to figure out my scheme.

        Great stories!  I'm not sure how I would react to an extra million in my account, but at the very least, I think I would sit on it for a few weeks (collecting interest)!!!!!!

          tg636:

          Sounds like a plan.

          In fact, I would encourage everyone who continually finds millions of dollars misdirected to their bank accounts to do the same.
