I always have a stash of cash at home. I would never be without cash on hand. I'd be screwed if there was an emergency and I didn't have cash. Along with twenties I keep a couple hundred in ones as in a real emergency I might need small bills.

I had to recently. I misplaced my debit card and had not cash so I went to the bank and wrote a check to myself. Hadn't done that in so long but I didn't have any problems (later found my debit card in the washing machine - after I canceled it already, of course - LOL)

I'll admit, I'm a little baffled at all the people using ATM cards with a teller. Back when I worked at a bank, you would either cash a check or fill out a withdrawal slip. It has been 10 years though, so it sounds like things have changed. I don't visit banks often, clearly. Me too. I just walk up to the teller and tell her I want to withdraw $X in cash. I sign for it and she counts it out to me and I leave. Why the extra step of using a card?

You can either swipe your card or fill out the slip.

I don't even show ID but that's because I've been doing business there since I was 7 years old.

I haven't written a cheque in years, in fact banks here are talking about phasing them out.

You must have 2 forms of ID. Usually your DL and your bank card.

I just go to the grocery store, buy a few things, and ask for cash back. Generally easy to get $5s and $10s that way.

It has been 10 years though, so it sounds like things have changed. I don't visit banks often, clearly. The joint household account DH and I have is at a bank that is ATM only, no tellers. So we have to use the Interac machine in the "branch". But the credit union I have my business account at, no withdrawal slip needed. I just hand her my interac card and say "I want to deposit this" or "I need to withdraw $$" and they do it.

I do it all the time. I go in, write the check out to CASH and tell them what bills I want. I usually get about two or three hundred in cash every so often.
I don't even have a debit card and I have never ever used an ATM in my life. LOL
If I get a smaller check for something under $600 I just get it for cash and put it in the safe.

I would go into my credit union and say "hi, my name is Mari and my account number is #########. I would like to withdraw a million dollars." And then they would give me money. No check/slip would be needed. Our credit union is really small. I just drive up and they greet me by name. They would send the money out with a printed out slip to sign and I'd be done.

I just take my atm card in and tell how much/what denominations I want. They swipe my card and give me the size of bills I want. I can do coins as long as it is a "roll amount" but I can't do like .87 because that isn't a full roll of any single coin type.

Yes. We do occasionally.
It does depend on the bank. One we have to write a check. I never, ever go inside. Always drive-thru. The other we can make a withdrawal, no check needed.

It has been 10 years though, so it sounds like things have changed. I don't visit banks often, clearly. Even if the teller window doesn't have a card reader, the teller can pull up your account by your debit/ATM card number. Or your name. Or your SSN. Or your account number. Or or or.

I'm a teller & we don't have the little machines that people are talking about but I always ask for the ATM card. It's so much easier to look up an account with it than trying to look up John Smith as there are hundreds of them. Most people don't know their account numbers.

It always amazes me how many people have the same names. And not only the John Smiths. I bet our bank would have had 5 Ivan Smithersons in the system, too! I always entered DOB and name together and still got multiple matches sometimes. I don't know if we could have look up by card number...I think I would have had to go to a screen I didn't use as often for that.

I would think it's different depending on the bank. It's been a few years, but last time I needed cash that was over the daily ATM limit, I had to write a check & cash it. That was the bank's policy, they didn't have withdrawal slips to just do a withdrawal. Since it's been a few years, I don't know if they've changed their method or not. Back in the day when I was a teller, a withdrawal slip for a checking account was called a checking debit. We called them counter checks when I worked at the bank. Personally, I would take the total amount I wanted out of the ATM, then go inside and have them make change if I also needed coins. If I only needed bills, I would swing through the drive up ATM first and then straight to the drive up teller window to get the bills broken down the way I wanted.

Yes, I do, especially when I need a large amount. Also did it when traveling to a couple of countries in Africa that did not accept older, torn bills. I had to give them a couple of days on that one!

We called them counter checks when I worked at the bank. We had those too; we'd run a blank check thru the imprinting machine w/the checking account number. It was different from a checking debit in that it was an actual check which could be used similar to a starter check on a new account; where the checking debit was similar to a withdrawal form.
