Ideas for revenge on a bank?

I guess I should maybe just be civilized and just write them a letter. IMO they could of done a lot more in both situations to keep their customers happy.

Edit: Google turned up a story on someone that filled his safety deposit box with dead fish. Tempting...

there was a story somewhere where some guy crashed the bank's online servers by paying off his bill in penny incraments. He managed to get the largest statement the bank has ever printed out before. I believe (he did it manually, you'll need someone to script something for you or you might as well not do it at all)

This qualifys under legal, definetelly annoying, costing the bank a few $ for the paper and ink. Won't affect lower level employees, but won't effect upper level people either.

You might try putting cement mix in their washing machines.

You could try banking at a larger bank. When I opened my account with Washington Mutual a short while ago they told me about check holding for new accounts, but that I could get around it if it were an emergency. I could be wrong, but this sounds like a smalltime rinky-dinky bank that makes its money off of imposing service charges.

Alternatively, you could stop charging more money than you have. It doesn't matter what order they do it in... whatever order they do it in, you still don't have enough in the account to cover it.
