trip report: depositing a $175,000 check from Stars

[dinopoker]

what bank is the check drawn on? You should be able to just walk into that bank with the check and walk out with 175K in cash.

Either way, very balla

[FatalError]

whoever you do your banking with is an idiot

i spent time in a few parts of the banking industry, and there is no way they should have bothered you with any of this

honestly if u have 175k checks going into the bank you could be getting much better service with at a private bank

hmm...i still use the same local credit union ive used my whole life...maybe i should look into another bank.

So I got a check for $175,000 from stars while I was away in AC and I tried to have my dad deposit it into my bank account but they wouldnt let him, as he idnt me...how rigged. So I wake up early, around 10:30 am, and head to the bank. I get there and they take the check to the back and apparently are trying to make sure its not fake, which is fine, as I know its real. After that, they call me into a little office and have a confrence. The nice lady then called chexx inc, which apparently issued the check. They are based in Canada but the check was from somewhere in cali, which was odd to them. After they claimed he was a real check, we had to call US bank, which is where the money was actually comming from. The lady from US bank was being a real bitch. We had to verify they had 175k in their account but she wouldnt tell us how much they had. Eventually, she said they have a very large account, which was good enough for the lady helping me. Finally, after all of this, she told me there would be a 10 day hold on the money...rigged. So...it looks like checks from stars still work. Yay. Hopefully nothing goes wrong in the next 10 days before it actually hits mt account.

Also, she said most people normally get pissed when they try to make sure a check is real...she was suprised that I was pretty calm. Ohh well. GL to everyone else getting their money.

I assume you were calm because you expected this to happen. I guess most people who have to wait the check to clear to have access to it have like $50 in their account and are constantly worrying about money.
