When you dump at a bank with a coin machine, do you roll?

[Ben Cartwright SASS]

I have 3 banks with coin machines that I use to dump my searched rolls and boxes. I spread it out so that I don't wear out my welcome.

The question I have for the group, when you dump at a bank with a coin machine do you still roll the coins and deposit or cash them or do you use the coin machine?

I am hoping that most people use the machine as that way any CWR's are from depositors not dumpers?

When TD had Penny I would dump coin in machine and I took slip for cash.. If it was a small amount less than 10.00 they didnt mind roll... Anything past that was machine...

All of the banks in my area that have coin counters will not take rolled coin. Everything must go through the counter.

Very, very few banks/CU's around here (city population 34,000) have counters. Of the one that does, you must run your coin through the counter. I have been told by a teller that they make exceptions for the elderly.

There is not one bank in my entire county that has a machine. (I think there are 4 banks) Only machine is coinstar in walmart. I will never pay 10-11% to deposit. So I must roll everything.

Makes me feel bad that I have 3 free to depositors counters withing 3 miles

Which banks are they? Besides if you put them in a coin counter, won't they eventually end up as machined wrapped rolls.

 

[Ben Cartwright SASS]

Yes they will, but if you just ask for CWR's you won't have that problem, but still there are so many banks feeding Loomis etc.

Also I have to go to a bank and find out that it is being used as a dump bank for a CRH'er. Although my best score of all was when I went to BoA and asked for halves and they had 32 rolls, at least 26 were my dumps but I got TWO SOLID ROLLS OF WALKERS

In my area its 50/50. My Chase banks like when I bring in rolled dimes, this way they don't have to order as much & yet they provide me with other CWR's or boxes. Yes, I do mark my rolls with a blunt magic marker so they don't give me back my own rolls. My other banks have lobby counting machines to dump loose coins.

went to the new bank, well new to me, I had opened an account to use the counter. I put in $240 in change and they charged a fee, they had told or I thought they said it was free to depositors, turns out it is 3% unless you are 65 or older.

anyhow I asked at the teller for halves, they didn't have any rolls but did have 18 loose ($9) so I said I would take them.

3 40% and 1 90% Kennedy!!!!!!

Went to a branhc of my bank to get rid ot 9 rolls of halves 90 dollars. She said they don't accept rolled coins as they have a coin counter. Yeah, bu you guys charge 5% for loose coins. She said to bring it to another branch that doesn't have a coin counter and that they accept rolled coins. The only problem is that's where I got the box of halves, I was able to get rid of the majority, but the teller thought it was odd to have that many halves rolled up.
Any thoughts or feedback ?

 

[Ben Cartwright SASS]

That is a tough one. When I got my halves from one of the banks they were vehement that I not bring any back to them. Luckily I have two banks that if you are a depositor you don't get charged a fee, so I take halves from one bank to the other and vice versa.
I never want to take halves especially to a bank where I got a box as I don't want to tick them off.

Are there other banks in your area? Maybe you could open some free accounts? I find that often you can get a free savings account for around $10. At one recent one you have to update it once a year to keep it active with no fees.

At Citizens bank you have to make a deposit every month SO I opened two accounts and on day 1 I make an automatic transfer to the other account and on day 3 transfer it back, Meets the letter of the law and get a free account
