So my son bought a truck last week, I wrote a check for $15,000 to add to what he had for a down payment and he'd pay me back when he sold his truck. He sold his truck on Wednesday and the guy paid in cash. I took the money to the bank, I went inside because I was not going to deposit cash in the ATM. I used my bank card and they also wanted to see my ID, okay, no big deal, then when I thought the deposit transaction was done the teller asked what my profession was. I asked why. She said that when a large amount of cash is withdrawn or deposited they need to list that, it's some banking regulation. I told her that I wrote a check for someone and it has already been cashed and they paid me back in cash - you can see right there on your screen. Then the supervisor asks me if there is a problem. I told her it's irreverent what I do, it's my money and I'm letting you (the bank) use and hold on to it for me. She said that they are required to ask the question. I told her I'm in management. Then she asks what I manage. I told her I manage people. Not good enough, she still wanted to know - I told her construction management. That was an acceptable answer.
This is complete bullshit. Is this a new banking trend or is it time to change banks.
