NEW YORK (Reuters) – Dalton Chiscolm is unhappy about Bank of America's customer service -- really, really unhappy.

Chiscolm in August sued the largest U.S. bank and its board, demanding that "1,784 billion, trillion dollars" be deposited into his account the next day. He also demanded an additional $200,164,000, court papers show.

I heard he was planning to start his own bank. But you know, there is an incentive. If BoA gives him the billion, trillion dollars, he will give them choice of a tote bag or a toaster!

I think it would be absolutely fascinating if he was to win his lawsuit. Where do you suppose the Bank of America (let alone a sovereign nation!) is going to come up with 1,784 billion, trillion dollars? Something tells me he shouldn't accept a check.

I'm thinking he's going high and will settle for half.

Humorous lawsuit, but the craziness of it will get it thrown out with a result in $0 being paid..
