So I ended up having a credit of $40, to owing $40. When I complained, they refunded me $40! Then I had to explain in great length why they still owe me another $40 ... @Donovan –

Then pray that the bank does not screw it up. It is going to be a headache no matter which way you try to deal with it.

Have some fun with this: Write them a letter disputing the debt. Call up accounting and demand to talk with a supervisor. Send them a check for no dollars and no cents then call and tell them the check is in the mail. Heck, call them up without sending the check and tell them the check is in the mail. Or, just pay the current bill and laugh at them without harassing anyone. Oh come on! Have some fun with this: Write them a letter disputing the debt.
