Royal Bank of Canada Software Upgrade Goes Awry

Posted by michael on from the cosmic-justice-for-SCO-investment dept.

Reader mks113 writes "Many Canadians living payday to payday have been in for a shock this week. Canada.com along with many other sources is reporting how thousands of customers have been inconvenienced following an unsuccessful software upgrade at the Royal Bank of Canada on Monday. All government employees (including me) in several provinces had their direct deposits delayed by a day or more." RBC has a comment on the mess.

    Looks like RBC's are having system problems. I know, lets help them out by putting a link to their website on Slashdot!

    ... and then someone rated that as 'informative'... Cripes!

    Not only do slashdotters have no sense of humor left,
    Not only do slashdotters post things akin to "white is not black. I don't know for a fact that it is not blue, but it is most certainly not black",
    But there are also moderators who think that's informative!

    You are kidding me, right? Is that really shashdot, or did I mistype the URL and ended up on a site that looks & feels like slashdot, but in reality is far from that? Somebody, please give me my old slashdot back! Worse yet, I know almost for a fact that some other moderator will rate this comment as 'flamebait' (a.k.a. "don't flame moderators, or we will moderate with no mercy"), so I have to AC it.
