Re: [OT]Hey Hey We're the MONKees...
Really they take your money and pour it into a machine that automatically counts and sorts the money for you. And that is worth 9cents on the dollar? Last time I went to the bank they took $20 out of my change for doing absolutely nothing and something that many banks did for free up until recently.

They also hold all your money and make money off of your money lending it to other people from which you get a tiny fraction of a percent back in interest. And this was a service that until recently was free. The dumbest part of it all is if you roll your money they don't charge you but then break the rolls and poor it into the fricken machines.

wow that's rough. In Aus we normally don't get charged if you use your own bank branch. But they give us little zip lock bags here anyway so you can do it yourself and they will just bank it for you.

For reference i count around $500 in coin every time, we are a coffee shop so most of what we get is coins.
Whats worse though is that the bank deposit bags we get, we fill with exact amount of money and right the check and seal it all and everything, so the bank don't need to do anything. We have to pay for. something stupid as well like $5 a bag!
We are actually doing the banks job for them by counting everything! they would charge us if i rocked up at 5pm and dumped the till on the counter and told them to bank it! but i do the work for them and have to pay. idiots.
But thats Commonwealth bank for you. I much prefer Westpac.
Although on bank rant, i do love commonwealth bank for running an ad that publicly rips Michael Bay for being a **** director
i count till for work a fair bit, and have to bank around 3-4K. Without those zip lock bags it would be a nightmare haha.

Literally. The Office of the Comptroller of Currency legally requires US banks to have a profitable business model. (I've been a bank vp the last 12 years.)

No fees on foreign transactions essentially. It was awesome when I was in europe, could withdraw money from ATMs without paying the foreign atm fee.
