SO, $700 APPEARED IN MY CHECKING ACCOUNT..... WHAT SHOULD I DO???

[dmbrhs]

Do tellers get in trouble for that kind of mistake???

Not for a single offense, or sporadic offenses. Mistakes happen, and they're easily correctable. I they do it consistently, they're probably messing up in other areas as well, and aren't long for the banking business anyway.

There will be some type of discipline. At Citibank, there were 3 levels of write ups before termination. For $700, thats a corrective action for sure.

Go to Vegas and bet it all on black, take the fam to Disneyland, buy a roomfull of Ramen Noodles, give it to a homeless person, exchange it all for one's and go to the strip club, lose it all in a local dice game, bet on a cock fighting match, buy 700 items from the dollar tree, etc etc. You have plenty of option with $700 free moniez.

Having worked for B of A before I've seen something like this happen to a customer. Numbers were transposed and money was being partially direct deposited to another customer he didn't know. Interestingly enough, because the direct deposit was setup by the original customer using the information he gave his employer the transaction was not considered a bank error and Customer A was out thousands of dollars. So, go to the bank and ask how the money was deposited to the account. If a teller made the deposit then don't spend the money. If it came through via direct deposit or wire transfer the money is pretty much yours because the bank didn't cause those errors.

I don't understand why you HAVE to spend it? Just save it, at least let it sit there for 30 days like the police would a lost & found item(think they do that lol I see it on TV), then account for it if you have it still

Why wod you create this thread and leave a "paper trail."

You keep stuff like this to yourself

I had a $150,000 show up in my savings account once for a lil over a week. I didn't notice it until months later, because it was a savings account at a credit union that I don't really look at. Since it effected my Average daily balance so much I ended up getting a few dollars in dividends that month as apposed to the measly cents I usually get.

Anyways, just let the money sit there until they take it back, because if your going to keep that account open, even if you withdraw the cash, once they notice the mistake they will correct it, even if it brings your balance to negative.

I had a similar situation but the money came from an unknown deposit.
Talked to a few people and found out it was my dad and he mistakenly deposited his check into my account because he had slips for me when I was in college. Glad I didn't spending it all willy nilly because it would have ended bad.

They will figure it out and if the money is gone I think it is considered theft. I remember reading a story a while back about some idiot that had a bunch of cash accidentally deposited in his account and spent it all by the time the bank figured it out and he was arrested for it. It's not your money, do the right thing and let the bank know.
