Waddya gonna buy? A short holiday or a Mac laptop?
I wouldn't be massively surprised if I realised one day that I've spent it all on buying domain names and funding Amazon EC2 machine instances

I've just realised that I'd already paid it off in full a few days before that.
So I've now got about £600 sitting there not earning interest
Better get spending, I suppose

Either that or they've got your records mixed up with those of an unqualified sixteen-year old single mother who wants a nose job.

I did something similar a few months ago. I have two cards, one of which I hardly use. By mistake I paid off the main balance on one on the other card. Couple of calls later, one card refunded me the money in credit no problem and the other waived the months interest on the balance I thought I'd paid off.
Simple, and I'm the sort of responsible customer they hate who pays their balance off in full every month.

Happens to me frequently.
day 1: go over the limit a couple of days before the DD would have paid it off
day 2: get the card refused everywhere and have to phone up a patronising woman in Madras to pay off the balance and get things moving again
day 3: DD goes in anyway and pays off whatever the balance was on day 1.
