Well today when I was dumping some dimes and when I was cashing out I got stuck behind a roll hunter who asked for what I believe was a box of quarters and 2 boxes of dimes. When the teller asked him who the coins were for, he replied "for Wawa," and pointed to the hat he was wearing. The teller then asked for the business account number of the Wawa in which he replied, "I don't have the account number." Obviously by this time I am thinking to myself, ah.. the old I work at the wawa and need coins trick... Either way, the teller had to go speak to her supervisor, came back out and told the man that her supervisor will no longer allow him to pick up coinage for Wawa unless he has the business account number because he has been emptying their coin supply to the extent that they can not accommodate their other businesses. Hmm.. I guess Wawa goes through eight to ten boxes of coin a week ....The man made a huge issue of it, asked to speak to the supervisor and began to argue with her that he had never had a problem before and that "This was a bank, that should provide him with even exchange of coin regardless of whether he had an account number or not." Meanwhile I am running seriously late for work, and while i try to be patient because i know what it is like to go head to head with a teller, this guy just seriously pissed me off. If you are on here Mr. Wawa manager let me give you a tip. In this hobby, if you think that you are going to be supplied with massive amounts of coin weekly without an account, you are being simply ignorant.. There are very few business that go through that much coin in one week.. You couldn't have been more obvious than if you wore a huge sign on your head that said "I look for silver in coin boxes." Take the time, be honest and kind to the people and OPEN AN ACCOUNT.. they will most likely accommodate your needs even if you don't have a business account. One more thing.. To argue with that woman over that fact that she wouldn't sell you coins when she has absolutely no good reason to was just dumb and rude. Obviously you have milked the branch for all its worth.. Move on to another bank and this time do it the correct way and you won't get cut off.. Also thanks for making me 20 minutes late for work..
