Rhyssa: [quote] [b]RhyssaFireheart said:[/b] actually, reading it again, I don't think the man won so much as the bank didn't bother to show up to any of the proceedings, which meant the courts ruled in the man's favor by default. It's not that the courts agreed with his charges as they really had no other option. The bank was stupid for not responding in court. [/quote] Yeah, on closer inspection, that does look to be what happened. Doesn't clear the bank of any wrongdoing, though. It is difficult to tell from the article who was actually right in this situation, but I'm still putting my money on the customer. Why? Well, their failure to respond to all of the customer's attempts to resolve the problem, including taking them to court, [i]might[/i] simply be monumental incompetence. Or it might be something else. Also, the bank never tried to challenge his claims. Perhaps they thought that simply ignoring them would make them go away. Given how readily banks resort to legal action, their actions here could mean that they knew they didn't have a leg to stand on. All of this is speculation, though. I don't see any resolution without more details. We could argue this back and forth until Hell freezes over and get nowhere. The fact that your husband works at a bank is naturally going to make you more sympathetic to the bank's cause. The fact that the rest of us don't have husbands who work at banks is naturally going to make us more sympathetic to the customer. That's really what our discussion boils down to.
