I was owed 30 cents or something by a TelCo about 20 years ago. So they sent me an invoice stating the debt every month. I asked them if they can just cut me a cheque or something and they said they wouldn’t for such a small amount.
So I received a -30c payable invoice monthly for years until the company went out of business.
This kind of shit cracks me up.
They spent far more than that in postage.
I’ve had similar with owing small amounts… where the letter they sent cost more in postage than was owed.
You’d think someone in accounting would say something…. Hey let’s just ignore this one. ??
Could have been sooner if you had just collected that $0.30.
Not sure what you mean? I tried and they said they wouldn’t issue a cheque for such a small amount. They weren’t going to send me 30c in the post.
You should have taken them to itty bitty claims court.
I think their joke was that, if you successfully collected on the debt, they'd have gone out of business sooner.
It was just a joke.
