Hey folks... I have had 3 tough situatons this week, it's not looking too good on my part for at least 1 bank... i'll try and keep it as simple and to the point as possible...
I deal with 3 DIFFERENT banks weekly... we'll call them Bank A, Bank B, and Bank C...
Bank A: I've been going to this specific branch for about 2 months now, every weekend on a certain day and time... asked for a box of dimes and nickels... always no problem. They have a coin counter i dumped at as well, but they were all cool with what I was doing. This is a bank part of a HUGE chain.
Upon asking for coins over the weekend, the usual box of dimes and nickels, I was told by the 3 tellers sitting at the teller windows talking to eachother, they cannot supply coins to me anymore, they are now only allowed to keep "what they need" in their vault... and this specific day i DID NOT use their coin counter, nor the week prior, and when I did, it was always $25-50 in pennies.
I am hoping I can still use this branch for dumping... any experiences like this?
Bank B: a larger regional bank(lots of locations in my part of the country, through several states) with a coin counter I use every week, I dump $1,000 in half dollars each week...i've been doing this for the past 8-9 months now with no issues... UNTIL TODAY. The manager comes up to me while I am dumping my usual $1,000 in half dollars and asks if I have a business account(which I don't), and procedes to tell me that I need a business account to use this machine!! I don't know if it is just me, but that seems like discrimination?? please correct me if I am wrong.
So I am going to have to lay off this bank for a little bit, but I do have a credit card with this specific bank where I put on quite a large balance due to the percentage cash back and no annual fee. I do not have much in my account here. Should I sit down with the manager who confronted me about not being able to dump here? what should i say? what should I do?
Bank C: this is also a large chain that is nationally known(I am not disclosing the names for privacy reasons), I have a weekly order with them. I have establised a weekly order with them in December of 2011 and have been getting 2 boxes of half dollars and 2 boxes of dimes per week, the tellers don't seem to mind. They told me earlier this week that come december, my order is going to have to be cut due to the lack of space in their vault... they told me That my weekly order should resume come January... my only guesses are the holidays in december, but i have a feeling they will cut me off completely... what to do?? I always buy them christmas ornaments and treats come december, each teller gets a nice gift to show my appreciation.
Thank you for reading... if you have suggestions to certain banks, please specify, "For Bank C, I would do..." "For Bank A, I would do"... etc.
