Whether it's 1 box or 1000, it's not their job. You've been abusing the system for quite some time and got away with it, you should be glad for the time you had not mad they finally got fed up.

Scubu,
You are right in the sense that they don't HAVE to order coin for customers. It was a privilege that I appreciated and enjoyed. The point is that I didn't ABUSE it, hence I would order smaller amounts and not dump 'em at the same bank. And as I said, the tellers never cared nor did the bank manager.
I never forced them to make the orders, just the opposite; most of the time they would ask if I wanted to have some delivered. So whether or not it was 'their job,' they did it just the same until someone else abused it. This is a lesson to those that abuse a privilege.

Quote: If they were smart, the coins he dumped would be the ones her got next week. Awesome idea. "You would like to order more coins you said?. Give me a second to count and package the lot you just returned. No?, well then buh-buy!"

Some times you just have to rant/vent, and this is a great site when doing so may educate others ☺... Yesterday I personally went into "vent mode" when I replied to a comment on the posters wife hated that he collected coins...

I'm the only one in my family (besides my grandpa), at my work and among my friends who collects coins so I appreciate having folks here that understand the frustrations.
BiggFredd, I wish you worked at my bank! lol

Don't you wish you could get him in a dark alley one night? I bet you would feel so much better after.
People like that just don't think far ahead. He will soon realize that he burnt himself too. And since he gets so many boxes, he will feel it more than you do.
If you find out who he is and where he lives, just let us know. A group of us would be more than happy to help you out with that dark alley thing.

Wayne Rooney goes to that bank too, you don't mess with him. *in British accent* ``Oi, mate, you're the guy taking all those boxes, yeah you. I'm watching you, just wait 'till we get outside.``  Seriously though........don't mess with the Brits.

Thats really too bad, Mitch. Unfortunately, IMO, I think that some banks are just looking for an excuse to start charging for anything, they can.

There have been a few major changes in banking since I was a kid: - Huge banking chains expected to perform for stockholders
- Loss of money-makers like loans, Christmas Clubs and check sales
- Labor costs up 500%, plus more unnecessary paperwork, making everything more expensive.
- A $5000 account used to be a big deal, now $100,000 is common.
Around 20 years ago, my bank closed on Thursdays. Ppl got paid on Friday, and by Thursday, they were broke, so why open the bank?

Sorry to hear that. I always joke with the tellars who order for me that I'm taking it back to their competing bank and would never bring back to them. They seem to get a kick out of it and I just despise the other operation given an absolutley mindless business policy of sticking their customers for all they can get.
Hopefully you will be able to find another bank which will allow you to continue your hobby.
