My cousin is a bank teller, he deals with cash, checks, and bank accounts all day.
Checks are a type of bill exchange to make it easy to carry large payments. I love having a check in my pocket.
Me too, it's like having cash on hand but checks are so much safer. Bank tellers and ATMs both accepts checks too!
ATMs make banks so much money from the two fees they have. The surcharge fee and the foreign fee.
True, also if you account is overdrawn with you knowing and you don't realize, you get hit with a huge fee. Bank tellers ultimate secret.
When money dips below how much you have then your account gets overdrawn. EACH transaction after that has a huge fee. The also offer overdraft protection for a fee per month. So make sure you pay attention to your account.
I try to always pay attention, so back to bank tellers. I bet that's a pretty stressful job!
Tellers are considered a "front line" in the banking business. I actually applied to be a bank teller but they chose someone else.
