They can refuse it, but they also lose their ability to claim non-payment of the debt.

He told them ahead of time, sounded like they agreed to it thinking he was kidding and then honored it when he actually did. Right now theyre probably just happen that the loans being paid off and not defaulted on

About a month before Daigle delivered the pennies, he gave Milford National a heads up.

"They were 100 percent for it," he said.


The bank manager is a roll searcher for sure.

It was only $620 worth of cents...however they would assorted from the past 35 years..wait, a 35 year mortgage? I have heard of 15 and 30 year but not 35 years. Perhaps they had a refinance along the way.

Were they rolled?
