Not a bank, but the state of Wisconsin is a bunch of crooks too.
Back when my oldest was born, we didn't have health insurance (are you kidding, I was in college and we were living on $11,000/yr), and so the state picked up the tab for the hospital bill initially. But, because my wife (now) and I weren't married then, they forced her to sue me in court for the birth expenses. No big deal, I just figured I'd make monthly payments. Nope, they insisted on wage garnishment. Great, I get to be embarrased to....
....only it doesn't end there. After a few years, it was paid off. I even got a letter from them saying so. Two more years go by, and then late one November, suddenly my paycheck is a lot lower than it should be, like by half. Seems WI made some kind of clerical error years ago and credited someone else's payments to my account (yeah, right, I'm believing that). So to make up for my "missed" payments, they garnished my paycheck again, and didn't even have the common human decency to notify me about it, and were even so cruel as to do this just before Christmas. They refused to show proof that there was ever any error on my account. Basically, they told me to sue them, which of course I could not do because it would have cost me a lot more for an attorney than what they stole from me. Needless to say, I hate WI.
