- Welcome to the #Bureaucracy! You owe us some money, but fear not, you can easily pay it with our very modern VPOS!
- Really? There’s no new items in my online mailbox you usually use.
- Oh we sent this request in a (non-certified) paper letter to the other side of the city.
- commuting Got the letter, what’s the URL for the VPOS?
- Oh we won’t tell you that…
- Nvm, I just googled it, what’s next?
- You have to choose the code that corresponds to your debt!
- Is the code in the letter you sent me?
- No, but we gave each code a title, multiple of which are very similar to what you want to pay for.
- googling OK, I found a page that matches the codes with account numbers and you did sent me the an account number so I think I found the right code!
- (mumbbling Damn it we have to get that page down!)
- So you actually sent me two letters with different sums, which one is correct?
- crickets
- I’ll just pay the bigger amount, just in case click pay Transaction rejected!
- Banks these days, huh?
- Let’s retry…
- You can’t just retry, the form you filled out is invalid now! But we can automatically create you a copy.
- This “copy” has a NULL where the original had some unique ID, are you sure this is right?
- We’re sure it’s fine…
- Alright, click pay
- UNRECOVERABLE ERROR
