    Banks are to nosy...

    Went to deposit my check from Caesars fom Vegas (mail pay winning tickets), well I went back today to withdrawal the money today since I lost my bank card and the tellers were asking me all these questions like what was this check for? I'm like UHhh none of your business, then I said fine I won money in vegas and got a check cut for me. She said well we get a lot of fraudulent checks so why don't you come back in a few days after it clears from our end and both banks. I said its from caesers in Vegas, the richest chain of companies in the world, I'm pretty sure they can cover my high 3 figure check. I was afraid they were going to flag it to irs or some dumb shit.

    Stupid.

    They are just doing their job. Fraud is rampant, and they can't just believe you because you say it is legit.

    No. I have several accounts with different banks. The one account with this bank is for gambling Only. But no I think the reason they told me to wait is because I deposited more money than I had in my account as my balance before the deposit.

    I never have any issues with banks. Deposited 4k in cash all in 20's and the bitch didn't bat an eye. I guess it pays off to be charming, good looking, and white. Sometimes of course.

    right, as i suspected. fyi - every single bank would hold funds on this check in this exact scenario. gl

    right, because banks hate accepting cash as a form of deposit.

    Everyone is treated like a criminal these days. A few years ago I wanted to withdraw 8k cash... they wanted to know why so much and I told them just to give me my money, ends up, they didn't have enough cash on hand and had to send me to another branch.

    If we all wanted our money from the banks, I don't think they could produce it.
