just wanted to share a quick story with everyone about chase bank (not that there opinion matters to me) i had to go try to cash a check from costa rica from my dad and i have an acct at wamu and they dont deal with foreign currency.

so i go to chase bank and im waiting for mthe manager to come talk to me and there was two other people sitting next to me a man and a lady,so the manager comes over and asks me where is the check from so i tell her and she says whats up with all the foreign checks today and the guy next to me says (joking) i have one from iraq. so the manager says what ,you dont have any dinars and think your going to get rich.
so the lady next to me says what! and the manager says yeah we get all kinds of people buying dinars for 800 bucks thinking there going to get rich.

nothing big but she was highly doubtfull about the dinar,i will not be going to that branch when the reval occurs she had a real snotty attitude.

I stopped by wells fargo today and had almost the same experience with the lady in foreighn exchange, when i ordered my first two million vietnamese dong.. she laughed and asked if i was going there soon.. saying there was some rumor on the internet about it going to be worth alot of money.. acted very sarcastic...I wonder if she ever looks outside the box??lol:wacko:
