I had a wad of cash on me today, (That's not why I almost fell over, smart asses!) and I went to a bank close to my home to get a money order. I stood in line, and when it was my turn, I placed my money on the deck, and asked for my M/O. The lady said, "Do you know that there is a five dollar charge?"

Well, it doesn't fuking surprise me, so I shrugged my shoulders, and she walked away for a few seconds. She cam back, and punched up some crap on her terminal, and asked, "Are you customer with us?"

Why, no.....I am not.

"I'm sorry.....I can't give you a money order."

Whaaaa?

I said, "Are you serious?", and laughed.

She called her boss from a distance away, and she yelled back, "No. Not if your not a customer."

I yelled out, "You people are out of your minds! I have CASH here, I am trying to give you!!!!"

I finally said, "Christ, at least the gas station will still give me one, and it will save me $4!"

I'm with you.....I'm not surprised by much anymore. As much as people don't realize.....banks are a business, just like everything else. So why wouldn't they want your $5 business??? UNREAL!!!!!!!!!!! :mj07:

I never get money orders anymore.

last year I got one for 240 bucks and used it to send a payment in the mail.

The check got lost somehow. Guess what . The bank does not honor money orders if they get lost.

I had to call a number in Colorado and after a total cluster fawk finally got the repayment for the money order 2 months later.

Just get a cashiers check. Usually if you bank with them they will give you one for nothing.

you do have a bank dont you yyz.

I could see you hiding your wad of cash under your mattress or maybe behind the sofa.

I don't bank locally. I have had the same financial institution for over 20 years, and they are not in the city I live in.

Seldom an issue, and neither is this. Just thought it was very funny shit. It tells me we are moving closer and closer to a cashless system.

Same boat as ya yyz. My bank doesn't have any branches near me.. closest is 25 miles away, and its in illinois. so by the time i drive it and pay the damn tolls, its like a 1.5 hour evolution pulling 10 bucks out of my pocket.

I do everything by mail/internet with the bank. When people give me cash I cringe.

Guys, I know that those places offer the things for a buck. I happened to be near this bank by my place. I figured, IT IS a bank, for Christ's sake!

You tell me, when in your wildest dreams did you think you wouldn't be able to walk into a bank and turn cash into a bank draft? Shit......it was a lousy $500!

Know what you're saying here. I can't believe the bank wouldn't take your 5 bucks for a 10 sec. transaction!:shrug:

The gf has gotten a 2nd mortgage on the house at a local Chase branch 3 years ago. She found out that you have to either make your payment via mail, (maybe online), or over the phone. You cannot go into a Chase branch and make a payment. EVEN THE VERY BRANCH SHE GOT IT IN.
