Called boa, they said $2000 mini. Order

Liu21 · Apr 2, 2015

Wth? This is a branch I ordered before, the first time I was at the branch and asked about ordering a box, and the cs/teller was super nice and placed the order for me. This time I called and spoke to someone and she gave me the usual oh blah blah blah there is a $2000 minimum, you can't just order one box. Needless to say I told her that is fine, and gave her my account information. Now I'm expecting 2500$ in halves on Tuesday 2000$ from one branch and 500 from another... Now let's talk about dumping."..... :BangHead:

I'm not a fan of BOA for many reasons. One is their lack of consistency when it comes to customer service. IMO they severely lack good management and any consistency in customer service. I go elsewhere even if I have to go farther away...Brad

Bet you a dollar that you get dollar coins. Most banks will usually order two boxes of halves. If you get one box a week they hold the other for next week. I've always been told $1000 minimum. With the limit she gave you I bet it's 2 boxes of gold dollars.

I hope not,because she repeated back to me half dollars. Lol if that is the case it's their fault and I'm not picking up those dollar coins...

I agree, out of the 8 branches I've been to, ordering from three has been great. Cs is outstanding. There is one boa in the city, they won't order me coins. Even gave me a fit when I picked up rolls of dimes. Today I went to dump 100$ of halves in mint rolls, they made me write my account # on each roll. The head teller is a total dick. My pick up bank in the city is awesome, they're getting me one box every week. I guess a box of DD, goes a long way. This week I picked up for two boa in Brooklyn, and they have been great so far. When I picked up I asked if it was for them to put in a order for next week. They were super cool, nice and ok about it. Cs, all depends on location and people, you can drive to one boa where cs is super out of this world awesome but go to the next one and they give you the look of you ain't worth their time..

Yeah, the couriers generally like to ship in even numbers and my banks always needed me to order 2 boxes.

Also, some banks don't have as much business as others so they're required to have less coin inventory.

That sounds awesome... wish my banks had a minimum $2,000 order.

So order the $2000 in halves, then just pick up a box at a time. They didn't say you had to pick it all up at one time did they?

No they did not, lol. However I might pick up 1000$ Next week and save another 1000 for the following week. If they want me to pick up all 2k I'm ok with it, I don't want to lose a pick up bank.

So, if you order the 2k, can you drop off the remainder that aren't worth keeping back to the bank without a prob

? Thanks for the help.... Looking to start up in this area of Coin Collecting as well as MD'ing...

You will need to drop them off at another bank or branch. Picking up from Bank A, then returning a day or two late with what you picked up to drop off will get you cut off from the bank.
