I was so upset today. I decided to go to another branch of my bank today to return some coins that I had been searching. I only had around $150.00 to return in various type coins. Part way through counting the machine stopped and said to call for assistance.
When the lady came over she told me that a couple bags were full and she would have to change them.
Right away I said that I wanted to buy any bags inside that were full. She said, "Okay, I will have to go check but I think we do"
Started changing bags and did the pennies first. Through the clear bags I could see wheaties right on the top of the penny bag.
Next bag was quarters, then nickels and then she pulled the halves out and said that was full too.
As she dumped the tray into the bag, I could see a 90% half came out last and landed on top. I think I saw a 40% coin too but not sure.
I told her again that I wanted all the bags as she sealed them.
She came back out with the bank manager whom informed me that they only send their bags to Loomis who verify the coin amounts and then send them back rolled. I told her that I was a account holder there and that I would give them the money right there and then to buy the bags. She said that was not possible since their policy was not to sell the full bags, but send them to Loomis.
I told her that other nearby banks did it, and that I asked at another one of my branches before and they said they would.
She stood her ground and would not let me buy the bags. I even asked if I could buy the handful of coins on top, and she said that they could not unseal them once they were sealed. She said she would sell or order me as many coins as I wanted to buy but they couldn't sell the bags.
I was upset when I left and decided right there and then that I would order as many boxes of coins each week that I was allowed, and they would all be dumped there.
What are they going to do? If they deny me, an account holder, I will let her supervisor know that I am moving all of my money and my IRA to another bank and trust me...they do not want this. I will also be talking to someone over her soon about this policy and why she would not let me do it.
So, my fellow hunters....there is a 90% half on the way to Loomis today, and we even watched them drive into the bank as we were pulling out.....
Happy Hunting!

-bags out there that will tie up a counter for hours if they can get away with it. when I do dumps that take over 10 minutes and a customer is waiting, I will abort and let them go with their dump_____ except for the MOOK with laundry jugs of qtrs--- he spent 30 minutes and kept pouring in coins, then called his wife to bring more jugs. I not only got in his face---the sign says after 10 minutes---let the next customer in---jerk still kept dumping until I notified staff he was over 40 minutes and refusing to stop. they handled the ###HOLE, and he got a look from me on the way out that would have frightened DRACULA & told him he was an inconsiderate ###HOLE---- think he understood my English language word. as for coin bags___not for sale at my local banks, so I grab any CWR whenever I can. occasionally some morons need to be told "YOU'RE ON MY BLOCK"
