Conclusion to the Late Fee Fiasco

Well, it's all over. I feel like I lost. I originally incurred a late fee on my Bank of America account, then I called and had it removed. They removed it for me. Twice. So I called and had them adjust that. They told me this would also adjust my minimum payment.

The bill is due today and the minimum payment stands at $171, which is $39 more than usual. The original late fee was... you guessed it, $39. I called them and their automated service also says $171.

I just paid them the $171. I'm afraid if I try to fight this anymore, my payment won't be processed in time and it will be late again. That's the last thing I want.

I am kind of angry at myself for even mentioning the $39 they gave back to me that extra time. I could have kept my mouth shut and earned $39. It's not like I haven't paid them many times that in interest charges. Grrrrrr.

Things will be so much easier when all the debt is GONE!

That stinks. But at least now you can just move on.

I know, I was disappointed in BofA for not fixing it like they said they would and really mad at myself for getting into this situation. Put a bad taste in my mouth. Blech!
