By the way, I am the kind of person that would return any money I found or return change when the clerk gives me too much. The $1200 hit my bank account and I showed the bank my $10 payment. They returned the $1190 to my account and notified mastercard. For about 24 hours my $10 payment paid off my entire balance. The interesting thing is that it was a programming mistake. I wonder if M$ was a program error?
