Now you are sounding like my parents.

OMG, lol. :1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

Hey, I want PROOF I put money in one of those things. Asking sponsors to sift through their canceled checks if the bank says there wasn't a check just doesn't seem like fun to me. If I were writing myself a check from one account to another, perhaps, but when dealing with a big business check, I'd just feel better getting a real receipt from a real person :)

And I know people who deposit CASH into ATMs. I kinda do the same thing when I play the slots though. :Oh crap

i really don't think the postal service put up much of a fight over this decision either...

damn no checks!

no bills tho either ...:)

Which is why most banks now limit the amount of your deposit that goes into available funds. People got smart and started making large "deposits" that were really just empty envelopes and then they'd use their debit card or ATM card to take all the money out, leaving the bank holding the bag.

I would always avoid putting a deposit in an ATM, esp. a cash deposit. What stops the teller from putting the cash in their pocket the next morning and saying "Opps, we never got your deposit". If I had to do it in an emergency, I would probably show the camera in the ATM each bill and then show me putting it into the enevelope, sealing it and shoving it into the little slot.

I agree with you 100%. I'm amazed at how ignorant people are. They know nothing about anything yet complain about everything. Some people need to read some history and also learn how this country works before they complain about shit. Nice reply :thumbsup

Okay, I won't deposit cash into an ATM, but I have never had a problem with a missing check being deposited.

I did have them short me $20 when I made a cash withdrawl, but a visit the next morning resolved that issue.

Your ignorance is overwhelming.

What he said.

Unfortunately it's true. I used to do a lot of work with a consumer group and we had at least a complaint a day about ATM cash deposits coming up "short" the next day. Granted, some of those could be stupidity or theft on the part of the customer, but many times it WAS tracked down to those who emptied the ATM.

I ALWAYS screw up the math on my deposit slip and back when I used to put them in the night deposit, I'd get a letter with the correction, but it would have been just as easy for them to pocket whatever I thought I didn't deposit.

Now the nice lady tells me in person at the window that I've done my math wrong :)
