Man Spends $100,000 to Arbitrate $150 in Citibank Overdraft Fees

CBS MoneyWatch has the story here. (HT: Gregory Gauthier).  Excerpt:

While the arbitrator sided with Dempsey, the ruling proved to be something of a Pyrrhic victory. The decision awarded Dempsey more than $20,500 in actual and punitive damages, as well as $30,000 in attorney fees, or about one-third of Dempsey’s legal costs. Since Citibank has appealed the ruling, Dempsey is now preparing for another round.
