So the Army decided to take money from me!

I went online to check my pay today and there was a $1145 deduction from this 2 week period with the only explanation being "Misc Debt". Now I have to go through a lengthy (2-3 week) process to not only find out why they did it, but also to see if I can get it back. How annoying and frustrating!!

My paycheck coming up will be for a whopping $150. Its a good thing that I dont live paycheck to paycheck. Also, I should point out that the only money that I owe anyone or anything is a small amount on my car, on which I'm ahead on my payments, leaving me no other unaccounted debt.

Absolutely no idea. I wont know untill next week, and for now I'll have to hope that its an error, only because I cant think of any reason.

And my next real check comes on August 15th, unless that one is borked too.

Good luck. It took them 4.5 months to start paying me.

I had on overpayment once. It wasnt a lot but added up over a year and a half. Like 1400.00 I had to pay back.

(is honestly not sure)

No, I have about a month or so untill I head over.

Ah ok, I was thinking maybe internal error regarding equipment not turned back in. That rules it out I guess. :)
