Title: money transfer ended up with extra cash
Post by: alaskan84 on April 16, 2013, 11:22:45 PM
So, maybe I'm stupid for even posting about this, but i found it pretty odd and i was curious if its happened to anyone else. Just like a bank can make errors, im sure these money transferring services/exchanges can make errors as well

I initiated a transfer from my bank account to my dwolla account; 500 USD

Finally cleared after the week wait time. I used bitinstant to send 400 to Mt.Gox. Where i think this occurred is on the first page of the bitinstant transfer i entered 500, but then changed my mind thinking i would split 100 separately into my campbx account. So the second page is the dwolla connection page and this is where i entered 400. From my campbx account i then initiated a 100 USD transfer from my dwolla balance. The MT.Gox deposit showed up immediately as just under 500 bucks. after the 6 hour delay, i now also see 100 USD in my campbx account. So did bitinstant screw up, or was this on dwolla? I definitely only had a 500 balance in my dwolla account. Do you think or can dwolla even withdraw funds from bank my account without my consent since i have it connected?(i'm sure its in the terms and agreements, but who actually reads all those?)
