My bank has sent me confirmation paperwork for the new terms of a Certificate of Deposit I rolled over. Technically this rollover happened two months ago, and it’s only a three month CD, but I guess it’s more important to produce massive amounts of paperwork than that anyone ever reads them.
This paperwork includes a booklet titled “Account Information.” It’s 100 pages long (50 in English, 50 in Spanish). That’s fine; there’s a lot of important legal information to convey in banking.
It also includes a second booklet titled “Account Information – Addendum.” It too is 50 pages long (50 in English, 0 in Spanish). In the era of computers they really couldn’t just merge these?
But the kicker is the one solitary additional page at the very back of the massive packet titled, I swear, “Account Information – Amendments to the Addendum”
Amendments to the Addendum! Amendments to the Addendum? Seriously?
At least now I know why it took them two months.
