Yvan Seth's Hole in the Internet

I was amused to receive a letter from my new bank that informed me that all the direct debits I'd had with my old bank had been transferred over to my new account. The amusing part is that included was a letter from me addressed to my old bank asking them to close the account and transfer any remaining funds to my new account. The letter, of course, printed using the nice bright letterhead of the new bank. Essentially saying: "Hey – we nabbed your customer. Har har."

I'm not using their letter though. It isn't because I care about hurting my old bank's feelings or anything though, it's because the letter has a WTF. The sentence: "Please action this on 31/12/9999." Oooookaaaaaay. Not really in a hurry, eh? I guess they'll get it in before the Y10K bug shuts down our robotic brains at least.
