Quoted from Zitt:And they asked for an ID, right?
My bank started requiring an gov ID to prove I'm the person who is making the deposit or some such bs.
Even though; it's my account... I'm using my deposit slip... and probably used their bank card to "sign into" the account at the teller.
I was quiet angry when the did that to me.. I actually made the bank manager come out to my car (in the drive thru) making it clear I wasn't happy that I was depositing cash (less than 600) - the currency of the united states into my account with my deposit slip. And they had the gall to require my id?
When did it become "ok" for banks to require an ID to transact currency in the account you own?
I think they made some bs comment about criminals laundering money or some such jazz. I'm sure someone here will point to a "law" which the government enacted that this policy is based upon... but honestly, I'm with the op and others that it's BS.
Sounds like big bank bs like bank of America or Santander.
Smaller local banks don't do this crap. At least mine doesn't.
