cha-ching a no go

Well the euphoria of a narrowly averted diverted disaster has shifted to something rather upsetting. The check that I thought hadn't cleared yesterday did. The amount I transfered wasn't enough to cover the check + weekend transactions + overdraft fee. Because BBandT's online banking doesn't show the day's transactions at the end of the day I experienced a false hope and now, I fear, an additional overdraft fee because I used my check card to pay for lunch.

I think I'll go to the bank tomorrow to see if I can have some of the fees removed. I think $102 for an overdraft fee is too high. It's probably for the three transactions that were posted that day. If the time of day a transaction is posted doesn't matter then I shouldn't be charged for all three transactions because only the big one couldn't be covered by the amount in there. If they don't see it my way I'll probably take my money elsewhere.
