  • He knows more than YOU do!

    Observed as I was about to leave work yesterday...

    SC - "I want cash out! What's the fee for that?"
    M (the guy who took over from me) - "We don't do cash out over the counter, but there's an ATM in the corner there."
    SC - But they charge more! How much is it to use the ATM?
    M - I don't know, it depends on...
    SC - (interrupting) You don't know, but you work here?
    M - Different banks charge different fees to use the ATM. It depends which bank...
    SC - I bet it's more than doing cash out over the counter. You're out to scam me
    M (forcefully) - It depends which bank you're with. It could be free, could be five bucks.
    SC - So you're saying you don't know. How did you get a job here? You don't know very much, do you? (stomps off to use the ATM)

    At least M knows that it's your bank that charges you the ATM fee, not the store the ATM is located in.

    It was at this point that I left. I heard today that the SC had a temper tantrum and claimed the ATM is broken because it refused to let her withdraw any money, and said her balance was $2.49.

    *smacks SC's forehead against the counter* Look, see? Your account is available, however, every ATM I've ever seen requests that you do withdrawals in multiples of $20, because that's the only freaking denomination IN the ATM. Your account doesn't have that much, so, you get NOTHING! You LOSE! Good day, SIR!
    "I call murder on that!"

      Gee, the customer in the original post sounds like our typical customer at the bank! Except, we also get this variation.

      Me: Your friendly teller, of course.
      Sc: Stupid customer, in this case.

      Sc: I want to take $20 out of my checking account.
      Me: Do you have check with you? You need a check to withdraw money from your checking account. If you don't have one I can also make you one over the counter, but there is a 25 cent charge for that, or $1 for 4 checks.
      Sc: I don't want to pay to withdraw money from my account! Don't you guys have an ATM?
      Me: Sure, it's right out the door.

      Why don't people just think to do that in the first place. And if you need a denomination other than a $20 bill, we can break it up to whatever you need!
      Suddenly, Vermont became the epicenter of the dystopia.

          My current banks lobby ATMs let you do $5 increments. The downside is anything over $50, you will get $50 bills.
          On another note, I remember back in college, (1988-1991) my then banks ATM, you could make a deposit and the money was immediatly available. Made me consider making a fake deposit to my account of a couple hundred dollars just to see if I could get that much out. But since they obviously had my name/address/etc, I never did.
