<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Jim M, post: 480243, member: 4791&quot;]Ahhh, this is true.&nbsp; Here is a great example that happened to me last weekend at a local bank.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>I took in a box of change to dump in the coin machine. (free to those that have an account, I do/did)</p><p><br /></p><p>In the reject slot there was about 20 cents, a couple of nickels and a few dimes rejected. All Canadian. I thought no big deal they are common here in SE Michigan.</p><p><br /></p><p>I go to the counter to turn in my ticket for bills and ask the teller to take the less than a dollar in Canadian for me.&nbsp; She said sorry we cant do that we don&#039;t accept Canada&#039;s money because of the exchange rate.&nbsp; I said you dont take them but you give them out?&nbsp; She told me they didnt, I responded can I have a roll of pennies please.&nbsp; She sold me a roll and I opened them right there at the counter with a very ticked off teller at this point watching.&nbsp; I pulled 3 Canadian Cents from the roll and asked to speak to a manager.&nbsp; Well things got kinda ugly at that point.&nbsp; They even offered to call the police since I was causing a &quot;disturbance&quot;. I offered my cell phone to call on. : ) </p><p><br /></p><p>In the end they gave me 3 new pennies for the Canadian ones that were in the roll, and a boatload of cash from the two business accounts and 3 personal accounts that I promptly closed.&nbsp; The CEO of the bank and the board have all received emails from me and I did happen to mention it to the local prosecutors office.&nbsp; They are looking into the issue as well now.&nbsp; We shall see where this one goes.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>All I wanted to do was turn in some change that I have received in change or bank rolls so I could buy more rolls to search.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
