Between my wife and I we have accounts at four different banks. One bank I specifically opened an account there because they have a no fee coin counting machine.

I've been searching rolls pretty heavily for about 3 years. In that time I've found a few branches of a few banks that are not too customer service oriented. These are the banks I love to dump on.

These tellers hate me and I know it. I don't care, I don't feel bad. I am a customer there and I only use their services to drop off coins. If they don't want customers doing that, they'll change their rules/fees/requirements.

Today I went to my local bank and asked for 2 boxes of Quarters; the teller didn't look too happy about my request. This teller was asking a bunch of questions and it seemed like she really wanted me to give up. She told me that the Bank in this particular location doesn't carry too many coins, so I asked her if she could order some boxes for me. After she spoke to the manager, she told me that the coins will be in on Wednesday at 1pm and If I don't come in to pick up the coins, there will be a service charge of $25. I agreed to the service charge if I don't show up... This is my NEW dump bank, I figure I'm doing them a favor since they obviously have a shortage of coins. I really don't feel bad for inconveniencing banks anymore, these guys have been dinging me for years with their service charges. Plus, I'm creating work for employees, they should be happy to help roll hunters.
