[QUOTE="clembo, post: 256238, member: 8033"]I think it really depends on the bank and the area you live in. I'm fairly close to Gary, IN which has a rather "extraoridinary" crime rate. People are wary anywhere that a lot of money changes hands. Banks really want to keep an eye out so it's common here to not be able to waltz into any bank and change currency etc without an account. Many banks also charge a percentage if you cash in a ton of change even if you ARE a member. Thankfully mine isn't one of them. When I do want to unload a lot of coin I call ahead and let them know. They appreciate that. Banks are businesses that want to make money but they have to keep an eye out as well. It may sound silly for a bank but the less you have on hand the better. I don't think the feds can have any say so as to individual banks' policies.[/QUOTE]
