Some printing error. That is also a major misunderstanding between customer and staff.

If I had a bill like that, I’d ask them for it to be itemised.

The bit about making arrangements to pay it off in instalments had me on the floor in stitches.

somebody ought to buy tehrights to the story - it will make a great comedy sketch. And yes the itemised version Paul mention is a must have item

It doesn't compare to this, but I once had a customer with a genuine bill that ran into huge figures. It was caused by a router auto-dialling every 10 seconds for several weeks; about half a million calls. The itemised bill took BT about a month to print out and was delivered in separate vans.
