    Yeah, I don't see the point in this. Is doing a bunch of smaller transactions actually less hassle than talking to the teller once? Doesn't make sense to me unless it's actually dirty money you are trying to hide the source of. I've never had that issue.

    lol it does sound sketchy reading it back. It wasn't like I went everyday to deposit the same amount. Probably over the course of 2-3 months. I was depositing cash from different sources (e.g other accounts, gifts, etc) into our wedding funds account.

    Excuse me government, may I please deposit my money? What a stupid system. I got fucking harassed for taking $6,000 cash out once, they didn't want to let me and were insisting on a bank draft and when I said no they were insistent on wanting to know why. Well sir it's because I want fucking cash. That made me so mad at the time I transferred all my business from that bank.
    I've had some kind of this shit too. They acted like I needed to book an appointment a week in advance as if I was about to deplete their fractional reserve for taking out something like $6k. I told them "I'm coming in and I'm getting this money so fuck directly off". Teller offered zero resistance and lol'd when I told her the Special Ed Phone Lady said it was "unpossible."
    Like as if there isn't more than $400k sitting in any given bank. Hell, I've gotten $5k $USD without any appointments or hassle before.
    There's a good reason everyone hates banks.

    I saw a stripper in line at the bank in front of me the other day convert $7000k CDN to USD. She was VERY specific that the money was not to transition through her account. Just straight cash for cash conversion.

    That's all.
    And exactly how did you know that that person was a stripper?
    Will fuck off, again.

    On the other hand, I was looking to take out like $500 USD once because I was going on vacation and wanted some backup money in case my cards didn't work... they (I guess rightfully, per the rules of the account) wanted to charge me $5USD for the pleasure of getting my own money out. It was the first time I ran into the fee, which wasn't much but still rubbed me the wrong way. I told them 'ok well if it costs $5 per transaction, can I withdraw $10k then, to lower the relative cost,' and I was pretty insistent on it. They told me they couldn't give me that much in cash because of what they had on hand, but quickly offered to waive the $5 fee on my $500 withdraw

    I wonder why she wouldn't go to CalEx or whatever... they give a better rate too?

    Not sure the strippers have the best financial literacy.

    This. She could have saved a couple hundred bucks. But maybe not worth the hassle for her.

    You must know different strippers than I do. But maybe that's for the best.

    People overreact to this "flagged" thing. It's not like you are on some exclusive terrorist no-fly list. There's thousands of these "flagged" transactions every day and there is zero consequence. It starts to matter if you are under investigation for financial crimes or organized crime ties or something.

    I deposited just over $20K into my account without being asked where it came from

    They might ask you some questions. Mine was from Casino winnings and I had the sheets from the Casino to prove it but no one asked.

    Yeah flagged doesn't mean you get put on a list for whatever. It's just the bank making a separate record of your deposit and reasoning and filing it somewhere else in addition to your normal banking records. My wife used to work for Scotia for many years, and she said all they do it ask the question ( they are obligated too, especially >$10K), fill out a paper form and 99% of the time they would just file the form somewhere. Those forms do not get submitted to anywhere, unless things changed recently as she hasn't worked there in years.

    Only time the form gets submitted is when someone is actually suspicious (e.g. making frequent large sum deposits just to have it withdraw within days) or when the govn't asks for them (usually CRA). She also said $10K+ cash deposits are extremely common (especially with Asian clients), and they usually don't care at all but they are obligated to ask the question and fill out the form.

    I've deposited more than $10K before and they just ask you where it came from, they write it down and could not care less. If you have nothing to hide and the reason is legit you can deposit $100K and it doesn't matter.

    It's far more suspicious if people deposit $9999 or something as it is a clear attempt to fly under the radar.

    I didn't think to ask the stripper why she was paying a few bps extra exchanging at the bank instead of a specialist forex joint.

    I was staring at her too-small yoga pants.
