That is a lot of pay-per-view and/or on-demand movies.
Daniel DeVirgilio went to pay his cable bill at Time Warner and the payment was rejected because the company had calculated that his past due amount was some $16 million.
Of course, Time-Warner made the usual apology and said that the issue would be resolved.
This outrageous bill is not the worse billing mistake to happen. There have been much higher billing mishaps in the past, though not by Time-Warner.
While the dollar amount of DeVirgilio's billing ordeal makes it among the more egregious in recent memory, the kings of all billing mishaps have to be a Texas man and a New Hampshire man in who received quadrillion-dollar credit card bills in 2009. The former, Jon Seale, received notice that he owed a 17-figure sum that totaled almost 2,000 times the national debt: 23 quadrillion, 148 trillion, 855 billion, 308 million, 184 thousand and 500 dollars. The other, Josh Muszynski, was charged 23 quadrillion after buying a pack of cigarettes at a gas station. Yahoo News
I’m on the way out the door to go do so boating on this nice 83 degree day here in the state of stupidity so there will not be much posting done by me. Have a good day everyone!
