Couple receives 55,000 pieces of post in a massive mailing mistake
- 4 years ago
CLEVELAND, OHIO — An Ohio couple were left shocked after receiving 55,000 copies of the exact same letter.
Twinsburg resident, Dan Cain was highly suspicious when the post office clerk told him he would not be able to get his mail through the front door; Cain then drove around the back of the office and saw a couple of postal workers wheeling out two huge bins of mail and it was all addressed to him.
What did he receive?
55,000 statements for the student loan, he and his wife Dee had taken out for their daughter's college fees.
Cain opted to not only accept the mailing mistake but to also make two trips in his truck to get all the letters home, letters that he says are incorrect; apparently, the company had used the wrong interest rate to calculate the payment.
The loan company apologized to Cain and his wife for the mistakes and blamed a computer glitch for the mailing mishap; the company also said that they would send another statement, this time for the correct amount.
Cain said with a chuckle, "I just may start a fire, a bonfire and burn it all."
