Just got a phone call from the "branch administrator" that not only will the bank I have my mortgage with no longer sell me bags of coin from their counting machine, I also can no longer use any of their counting machines at any branches... had to vent my frustration- all the managers think its fine, just not the higher up. I have been counting there for 3 years now...

Yeah, there are some others that will order boxes, and finally a new bank that also has a counter, but the nice thing about this place is that it's where many people in town cash in their coins, so I've been getting something like 10 silver dimes per bag and 2 silver quarters per bag.

Why would they no longer sell you bags of coins? You're actually saving them money from them having to otherwise send coins out for processing.
They claim it's "too much work" for the tellers.

It's a tiny community bank (only 4 branches) - Biddeford Savings Bank.

Wow, now that is real ironic.
Imagine, banksters refusing to deal with legal money!
Do you have a garage? Buy the parts and build you own coin counter. It is not that hard.
Oh, wait, for the scale you are talking about, yes it is. |

No one around here will accept bagged coin. |

mortgage rates are at an all time low, if you have not refinanced in the last two years do it. tell your current bank to take a hike |
Today is the tomorrow we worried about yesterday. |
