When I ditched Time Warner Cable (Verizon FIOS is so much better), they sent me a bill for $0... I didn't pay it, of course...
Kinda hoped they'd start complaining about non-payment, just so I could get a good laugh. But alas, their system wasn't quite that stupid.

It's amazing how many people have had problems like this. It's 2015 already, can't people count yet?
I have no idea how their systems are made, but shouldn't something like if(outstandingBalance > f0.01) { SendBill(customer); } prevent this kind of thing happening? It just seems like such a simple problem, so simple that it couldn't possibly happen - but it does, so much.

If they'd be smart, they'd make it even if(outstandingBalance > postageFee) { SendBill(customer); }

Actually I recall one instance of an invoice that specifically stated they didn't want the money because it was less than 1.00. But that was a one-time experience and I don't expect that to ever happen again: over the past years charges were raised for pretty much anything that used to be free of charge, such as using a cash point to retrieve your own money. 
GOTOs are a bit like wire coat hangers: they tend to breed in the darkness, such that where there once were few, eventually there are many, and the program's architecture collapses beneath them. (Fran Poretto)

In defense of Verizon I must confess the invoice did state "No payment due at this time". However, I do not understand why they sent it in the first place - after I paid the regular monthly invoice. And for such a strange amount. But I like Verizon, their customer service is reasonable (not great but reasonable) and they have not given me much to complain about in the past.

How much did Verizon spend for this invoice?
If it was an email invoice, perhaps free.
If a postal delivery, they spent a non-zero positive amount to get back zero dollars.

Maybe it was an email invoice with an ad that produced a bit of revenue and Verizon deducted (part of) that revenue from the invoice, causing the -0?

It was an email invoice with no ads attached. It just does not make much sense!

In many apps, -0 means "unlimited".

I wish I got more invoices of minus zero... You certainly wouldn't see me complaining in the lounge! 
Edit:
Come to think of it, I'd also settle for minus zero invoices!

I am not complaining. As stated earlier, I like Verizon. I just think their computers are behaving in a somewhat strange fashion.

You sure?
I mean, I've looked at mine many times, and never seen a bolt, or screw-head.
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

There are many types of term "fixed", in our days, you hardly notice a mark of anything. Back in your days, well, there were bolts and screws etc which were noticeable.

In computing, "fixed" means "it wasn't broken, but it is now".

No, some people are built upside down. Their feet smell and their nose runs.
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

I try to avoid such people, they can kick me in the face just for sake of Hi 5.

If I read the right, he's complaining about Bruce Grobbelaar taking on Rik Mayall's part in a new show.

An HTML footer that stays at the bottom of the browser. I've done it a few times, and it is a pita.
