One upon a time, I worked for a credit card company that would process transactions made on the old swipe machines. As it was hand written the system couldn't read the handwriting so it was all inputted manually. It was not uncommon for this sort of thing to happen, either the decimal point being too late or too early. Had some people paying £3000 for a pizza or £30.00 for a £3k holiday.
I had a credit card company do that with my payment years ago. I always sent them a 40.00 dollar check. They processed at as 4000 dollars. Screwed up my bank account. I got the bank to fix my account in a few days, but the card company did not fix the error for like 6 months.
