I juggle 2 CU accounts and 3 banks. Only one is a p.i.t.a. regarding fees, so I dir deposit a min amount to avoid the fee.
Being a taxpayer, I've given money to banks I don't even belong to. It's unavoidalble.

I currently have 5. My primary is at a CU, which I do my normal person banking - checking account that I pay bills with, have a vehicle loan through. Opened a savings acct. at another CU with several branches in the surrounding area for dumping purposes. Acct at Chase because they gave me $150 to open it, I get charged $10 per month service fee, but its not too big a deal to me since I pick up mass quantities of coin from them and they are always the friendliest by far. Lastly, its not really an account, but I have my mortgage through another bank that I dont have any accounts with, that I use for pickups and dump small amounts on. I just opened a new acct at a newer CU in the area in the name of my youngest child to avoid fees and use their coin counter.

I probably have too many, the only one that charges me fees currently is Chase, but to me it is worth it for what I get in return as the tellers keep an eye out for "weird" stuff and clean the magnets from the coin machines for me.

I have 3 accounts. One is my business account which I get $5,000 in coins/currency at no charge per month. I love smaller banks!

I only have one bank account, but I am more concerned with the number of branches I have at my disposal. I get my parents to dump coins at the bank they have an account with as well, so between myself and them there are 5 or 6 branches at I can utilize. This works extremely well for the small amount of coin that I go through on a weekly basis.

I have 4 bank accts with a primary naturally where my pension is deposited. I pay no fees & I order from 5 different branches with no fees. I have a total of 45 banks that I do business with for both dumping & ordering. So as you can see I do a lot of driving & am very busy with the hobby. But its fun & I'm even dating one of the nice beautiful Tellers.

Tim, you da man! 7 accounts, that is like rock'n'roll for the CRH.

I only have 3, but that is still a lot, compared to people I asked. Most of them have 1 acc. and rarely 2, but they aren't CHRers.
3 banks is a golden middle, there are a lot of branches and so there is a room to buy and dump at your convenience.

I have two accounts, 4 - 5 diferent locations for each, none are more than 30 min away from me, each dump branch only sees me once every 3 weeks, the other account, my pick up banks, 1 every 2 weeks and the other is every week.

It's definitely all about hitting up the right branch. Some tellers are very nice, while others are on their period and want nothing to do with you and your coins. :coffee2:

I was actually a little nervous when I started, but soon realized I am small potatoes.

My favorite casino pick up spot has limited me to 2-4 rolls of halves per day. I bought a couple half boxes at bank of america but they were skunks.

I have three right now. One dump bank account and two pick-up bank accounts. I will be closing one though, because I've ran through their CWRs and they refuse to order me any boxes. I have a few more banks and credit unions around me that offer free checking, so I'll be opening up a few more soon.
