Today included for me a lesson in having one's software do basic sanity checks on data that is to be seen externally. My bank sent me a letter notifying me that if I were to use the planned overdraft facility to borrow £750 for three months then the total cost to me would be very nearly £1.3bn. Their call center operator agrees with me that this is probably not what they intended.
