A friend of mine has been forced to file a claim in Small claims court against Bank of America. (His Credit card number was used in a "Fraud Deal"...(home shopping network) ...and for 3 months he's had to jump through Hoops trying to get BOA to fix the damn thing.. it's for $472.00.
He went down to file this morning and had to pay something like $260.00 to file.
I guess why I'm kinda' pissed is: I thought our taxes pay for (at least) some of the costs of this kind of stuff...I mean...it's only 1 stinking page to fill out and the court has to send BOA a letter and all that stuff (big Deal) but 260 bucks? Geezzz....
I guess the bottom line is ...if a company owes you 300 dollars you're essentially screwed... (ain't worth the time and effort)
ON EDIT: I guess my point is: If you don't have the outrageous filing Fees you're fucked. ...same ol' crap... Screw the Poor.
