Alright, just checked my bank account this morning to see what the sorry state of it was and found a mystery deposit of 40 GBP. I have no idea where this has come from, don't recognise the details (just says CARFAX OXFORD), and I'm wondering whether I can actually touch this money or not. What do you think?

You can thank me later.

I say spend it! If the bank comes after you, just tell them someone on a Prince website said it was cool.

Ace said:

But seriously, if I withdraw the money is it likely that someone will realise the error and try to get the money back, leaving me over my limit?



The money would be very handy today.

Ace said:

So it was YOU that called me asking for donations to the needy!

Anybody?

I'll take the money out today if someone says I won't be liable to give it back should an error be discovered. Can I plead my innocence?

Wait, what about the moral issues here?

It's tantamount to stealing right? What do you think about that? It appears to be a company as opposed to an individual, if that makes any difference.

i think i would just have to ask the bank to verify the deposit...if it's legit then bingo ...guilt free spending

It's only 40 GBP, but here in Thailand that's 2800 baht ($70). I'm just thinking what that'd buy you here...

Taxi to central plaza = 60 baht
Lunch at Black Canyon = 200 baht
2 pairs of jeans and a pair of shoes for the wife = 800 baht
2 new t-shirts for me = 400 baht
Sticker photo = 70 baht
Dinner at Zen Japanese restaurant = 500 baht
Movie = 300 baht
Bottle of wine to take home = 400 baht
Taxi home = 70 baht

Total = 2800 baht

Or I could pay most of my power bill from last month.

Witht he money I'm gonna pour on you I better get laid.

Shame I'll be using it to pay the house power bill eh.

Really makes me wonder where all the money goes considering you can get all that for under 3000 baht. I think my bills must far outweigh my living costs. It's ridiculous really. For the price of my cable I could eat dinner out with the wife 4 times. My damn fridge cost me less than what I have to pay for bills each month, not including rent.

Fauxie said:

I'm sorry, I don't know where else to take this thread.

I just lacks potential.

Probably make an interesting blog though.

wonder what Fauxie's ass looks like


sorry ...random thought

Okay, I REALLY didn't need to see that comment.

TMPletz said:

i guess it's a good thing i left out the part about the banana and the chocolate sprinkles then, huh?

Anxiety said:

What have you done?????

Fauxie said:

Unfortunatly banks claim to always be right and if they say it was a mistake u will be liable bloody banks suck ...I'm forever wondering what things are on my bank statements but they always seem to be the withdrawels not the deposits

Oceans said:

I've decided not to touch it over the weekend and if it's still there on Monday I'll take it out. Should I go over my limit I should be ok as my account is held in the UK at a local branch and my folks both used to work for the company and can usually get the overdrawn fees waived.

I'm hoping I finally get a bonus this year.

I'll give you 40 dollars to de-bump this thread.

I kept it and nothing ever happened about it.

p.s. I saw that, 9s.

Cunt.

Just the very idea of random money stuns me, and I live in a state that has a lotto.

The only course of action is to have the bank trace it for you.
Have you tried to Google 'Carfax'
