A bank teller is a person who works behind the counter in a bank, serving customers. An old meaning of "tell" was "count," and tellers count money.

I used to play with an old cash register and play money to pretend I was a banker.  I am now a teller at a credit union, working my way up to manager!  Who knew?  Dreams (with a bit of hard work) do come true!

You can open a community account and you will pay reduced fees if you are non profit making for this element of the business.  You should have more than 1 signatory on the account, maybe yourself and any one of 2 others.  You and they can then write cheques and withdrawal slips with the protection a single named account does not have.  Most of the banks and building societies run them, Barclays do a good one and so do Nationwide.  You will need to go in though and not do it online.

Hey Ryan.  I'm a banker so this I know.  $1 dollar bills come from the Federal Reserve in $100 straps.  Every bank and every teller are different in the amount that they keep.  I used to keep in $50 straps.  So, just go to your bank and ask the teller.  They will let you know.  They aren't all new.  You can ask that as well and most tellers will allow you to get them in straps.

The acronym ATM stands for automated teller machine. ATMs have become an integral part of our lives and have existed since the mid-1960s. According to MSNBC Technology Correspondent Bob Sullivan, there are approximately 370,000 ATMs across the United States or 1 for every 296 people. That may be too many according to a recent study by the Dove Consulting Group.\n\nTony Hayes, author of the Dove Group report, stated that as many as 50,000 ATMs may disappear during the next three years if something is not done to rectify this problem. ATM locations make a difference in how they are used and the best locations are gone. Hayes further stated that running an ATM costs roughly $1,000-1,500 per month. Even if fees are at the high end, $2 per withdrawals is insufficient.\n\nIn the 1960s, the primary purpose of the ATM was to provide cash. However, today you can go to your bank's ATM to make a deposit or loan payment, to transfer funds between accounts, or to check your account balance. ATMs are used to obtain money from anywhere in the world. To carry a debit card means you can carry less cash on your person, which guards against money being lost or stolen. Some ATMs will even allow you to buy postage stamps or add money to a prepaid cellular phone service. Although ATMs are common and helpful, people are reluctant to use them because of the misinformation associated with using ATMs. ATMs in the United States handle more than 10 billion transactions a year and the vast majority of the time transactions occur without glitches. Nevertheless, there are times when ATM users encounter problems.\n\nThe use of ATMs makes it convenient for shoppers in the marketplace, yet it can be costly. For example, withdrawing cash from another ATM outside your bank's network may require you to pay a fee ranging from $1.00 to $4.00 per transaction. Such fees may seem small but they add up over time. To avoid paying ATM fees, use your own bank's machines whenever possible. Virtually all banks offer accounts with free ATM transactions to their own customer. However, some financial institutions do have accounts that charge their own customers an ATM fee. Therefore, it would be wise to look carefully at the accounts that are available and choose the one that meets your needs. For example, choose an account that allows free withdrawals from an institution with numerous locations. However, in the event your bank charges an ATM fee, it will probably be less than ATM fees at other banks. Your bank may be able to provide you a listing of banks that will not charge you a fee, or you can find this information on the Internet.\n\nIn addition, if you must use another ATM, become familiar with your own bank's fee for using another institution's ATM. Some banks have agreements not to charge ATM fees to each other's customers. Keep in mind that if you are unable to use a surcharge-free ATM, you could incur two charges---one from the ATM owner and one from your own institution. Federal law requires that ATMs caution non-customers about surcharges before completing a transaction.\n\nConsumers can save time and gas by withdrawing larger sums of money. For example, make a single $100 or $200 ATM withdrawal instead of several $ 20 or $40 withdrawals. You can also save time and energy by getting cash back free when you use your debit card to make purchases at the grocery store or other businesses. Some stores will also cash a check free of charge or charge a fee that would be less than what you will pay at an ATM.\n\nConsumers should also be aware of possible bank overdraft fees when using an ATM card. It is wise to record debit card transactions in your checkbook or another record keeping tool. You cannot always rely on the receipt received from the ATM. This balance may not reflect the checks you have written that have not been paid yet, or debit transactions that have not been posted to your account.\n\nUnder the Electronic Fund Transfer Act (EFTA) t

Pretty simple. You place your deposit (usually a check which you have to both endorse and write your account number on for added security) in a special envelope you can find near the ATM. Then you insert your card, enter your PIN, and press the deposit button. Follow the on-screen instructions, which include entering the amount of the deposit and inserting the envelope in a designated slot. The amount will be credited to your account and you can withdraw upon it immediately (in most cases). Eventually (usually that day) an armored car worker will come along and deposit money in the ATM and collect all deposits, which will be processed by the bank. If they find any discrepencies between the amount you entered and the amount actually deposited they will readjust your account balance and may contact you. Generally once you deposit the envelope in the ATM you don't need to worry about anything. It's a much more covenient alternative to standing in line at the bank. If it sounds complicated, it's not. There are instructions on the envelopes and the screen will give you all your steps. Enjoy your banking.

Banking  is  a  global  business,  I  suggest  you  do   some of  your  own  homework  and  think  about  the  repercussions  of  lacking  staff  with  international  banking  skills  or  loosing  staff  that   had  the  skills.\n     You  will  be  a  mediocre  talent  yourself  unless  you  start  actually  learning  some  of  this.    Don't  YOU  want  to  be  an  asset  they  desire  to  hire  then  retain  ?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_teller_machine\n\n\nThe world's first ATM was developed by De La Rue and installed in Enfield Town in North London on June 27, 1967 by Barclays Bank. This instance of the invention is credited to John Shepherd-Barron, although Luther George Simjian registered patents in New York, USA in the 1930s and Donald Wetzel and two other engineers from Docutel registered a patent on June 4, 1973. Shepherd-Barron was awarded an OBE in the 2005 New Year's Honours.

It happened to me too.  Ask around.  Call several banks.  One of them is bound to let you open an account.  It's the branch managers' call.  Sometimes.  After some time passes you shouldn't have a problem.  Besides, lots of people go through life without a checking account.  You can open a savings account.  After you've had an account with a bank for a while they're bound to be more receptive to letting you open a checking account.  You can pay your bills in person with cash or use money orders. This isn't the end of the world.

It just another way to do your banking. If you have an account with a bank, visit their website. They should have an explaination of what it is and how to use it. Otherwise give your bank a call/visit.

The best bank promo i saw was that the bank near my home was giving away a free slow cooker (costs 10-15 dollars)with every checking account open\n\nI know its......lame\n\nI once used a bank product to sell some stocks of radio-shack.\n\nAll I had to do was give them the certificate, and they put it into an on-line account. I then sold all the stocks for a fee of around 15 dollars on a 3200.00 transaction

The bank has the information.  The teller, or first person you speak to on the phone may not.  You must contact the right person and prove your identity to them before they will give out that information.

My first job was working at one of the fast food places in the mall's food court.  I was 15 and I loved it.  I worked at lot of places in the mall.  Two food places in the food court and then at a department store.    The best job for me was when I was a waitress.  You went home with cash every time you worked.  And you got to meet alot of people.  It was tough sometimes, but I always had fun.  And the money was good.  Kept me in great shape too.

While I'm not a teller, I am in the banking industry.  I think a bank teller is a great job for any competent person.  If you are young and really just need cash in your pocket, it pays good for the amount of work.  If you have future ambitions in banking, most decent banks are willing to move tellers if they can show a strong drive and good work ethic.

I always felt kinda sorry for tellers until I was a proof operator.. then I wanted to sacrifice one to the proof gods to make them all bank face their checks!!\n\nReally tho I was behind this one person at a bank and they yelled the place down claiming that the teller had "forgotten" to give him all of his money.. I mean really, dont you count yours before you leave? I know I do.

You have to have the account number.\nThe tellers aren't allowed to look up an account for someone other than the account holder, simply for security purposes.  As well as following a Privacy Policy.  Even if it is just a "deposit" and not taking any money out, it is still against banks Privacy Policy to look up an acct if it is not the account holder present.  By doing that, one can be breaking Privacy Policy when looking up an acct that will actually disclose someone actually has an acct at that particular bank.  Its happened many times when an exboyfriend/girlfriend wanted to make a "dep" into an acct simply to find out if someone they know banks there.
