Visa recorded a $23,148,855,308,184,500.00 purchase on Consumerist reader Dale’s kid’s prepaid Visa Buxx card: “My lectures about financial responsibility appear to have failed: yesterday she charged $23,148,855,308,184,500.00 at the drug store. That’s 2,000 times more than the national debt, which is a paltry 11 trillion.

The ever-vigilant folks at VISA added a $20 ‘negative balance fee,’ and have suspended the card.”
