The bank my family has accounts on has subtracted small amounts from

They say that there had been a mistake in the interest of previous
years which "the computer found" and they subtract the amounts to
even it up.

Should I believe them? Is this standard procedure when a mistake is
found? How should I check? Forgive me if the questions sound stupid,
I'm a little lost with economics although I do pretty well with math.

They are just stealing your money. Forget about it. You can't stop
them.

But, maybe you should name the bank and describe what it is doing in a
lot of high-traffic newsgroups that its customers would be most likely
to read...
