I would report it. There are scripts out there that log in to micro-payment systems like that, and steal small amounts, But remember they freeze the account while investigating.

Next time you visit a bank, ask the manager about this, and you will change your mind.

No-no, you're wrong. The 11 cents was me...the 15cents maybe you... ;)

Since I don't know what you are talking about, I do not disagree with you ...

but how does a script actually steals? I mean where does money go? If it go to some other account, that must be in transaction history .. isn't it? Also, no fees are deducted for such transfer? And how that script logs in on the first hand? And why it only steals cents? why not all money?

Moreover, if its such a popular problem that you are suggesting me to ask my manager .. it should have been fixed by now.

too strange thing for me.

Good gawd that would be near impossible to monitor as a user and well trying to prove it would be even worse.

I am sure many others are in the same boat as I am. I have a general idea of how much is in my epassporte, yet rarely down to the cents. I could only rely on the transactions records. Hell the one time I noticed money missing I discovered in my log that I had to rebill my epass account (yearly renewal fee).

Then of course I am sure someone will explain that it was a software mistake and it was correcting the balance or some shit. Though it makes me very uncomfortable.

I think if you are making transactions or withdrawals in foreign currencies it will make small corrects here and there. They show up on the monthly statements.

minusonebit 09-07-2007 05:38 PM

heh, maybe ePass ran a few hundred dollars short on the rent, so they figured it out and if they stole exactly 14 cents from every account, they could make up the shortfall.

Michael O 09-07-2007 07:53 PM

When transactions in foreign currency settles the amount can differ a little from the Outstanding charge that is why you see you balance change.

ridikuloz 09-07-2007 07:59 PM

a couple of cents may seem little but let's say 5,000 accounts x .15 cents = $750 a day.
