Speaker 3 (00:09):
There's been some stories recently of people saying they went
to get their own cash out of the bank and
being questioned and turned down by the bank.

Speaker 4 (00:17):
Okay, I'm very furious right now. I just left the
bank and I went to withdraw twenty thousand dollars cash.
A lady at the tellergoes, what's the purpose of your withdrawal?
I said, I'm building, and she goes, okay, do you
have invoices? Okay, no, I don't have invoices because I
haven't paid them of your sid but I have quotes,
and she goes, okay, make sure you bring your quotes.
And I was like, okay, but what if I don't

(00:37):
have quotes. She basically said, you have to give us
proof or a reason. I've given you a reason. I'm
building and I like to pay my trades in cash,
and she goes, yeah, that's not good enough. We need proof.

Speaker 3 (00:48):
It's another story where a young guy goes to get
cash out for his garage's been on garage sales and
they've queried him about that, and they said, why do
you need the money? And he says, well, I don't
know what I'm going to buy it, and they refuse
to give it to it's you buy it.

Speaker 2 (01:01):

Speaker 3 (01:02):
Garrett suche see are you working for the bank now? Brandon?

Speaker 1 (01:05):
What's buying?

Speaker 2 (01:06):
Brick a broad?

Speaker 3 (01:07):
Why do they have to know?

Speaker 1 (01:09):
Well? What if?

Speaker 2 (01:09):
What if? Okay, you are coerced into going down to
the bank to pull out a large amount of money.
You're an elderly lady. You've got an eye, not an
Irish roofer, but a proof for it has come along
and said, right, you know I'm going to do your roof.
You've got to go down and get the ten thousand
dollars out of the bank. You know you're about to
be scammed.

Speaker 3 (01:29):
Well that's the thing, that's what they say. They are
checking four scams and they are protecting you. How do
you feel been questioned by the bank when you're withdrawing
your own money? Does it pass the pub test?

Speaker 5 (01:39):
Love? Didn mean question when depositing money into my account
at the end of the day's down money like you
know what we do? You know where it comes from
or where it's going it down business.

Speaker 6 (01:49):
I hate it and I have been questioned twice in
the last few months to try and get my Orden
money out of my bank accage.

Speaker 5 (01:59):
No, I don't think it passes above test.

Speaker 1 (02:01):
It's your money, and I don't think they're trying.

Speaker 5 (02:05):
To protect it all and correct if I'm wrong. Is
there not.

Speaker 7 (02:07):
Invasion of your own propacy? Well, the bank open questions.
It's to put the profits up like you use your
credit card, debt card and a shaving card where all
the baking trees props up the bank if they do
it not only with the straws, but the deposits. I
had to deposit a couple of thousand dollars in my
daughter's account for a wedding, and then they're demanding to

(02:30):
know why I've got this amount of money and why
am I putting you into that account.

Speaker 1 (02:34):
I think it passes a pulp test because I've had
the experience with my father in law in his late
eighties what's been scamped and the bank actually stopped it.

Speaker 2 (02:43):
Interesting and not just Irish roof, as could be any
roof of the of those roof scammers. For a while,
they're rip it off old facts. Go along and put
some paving. Cement on paving paid on your roof and
then charge of twenty grand for it.

Speaker 3 (02:55):
I paid twenty five grand. Thank you, Brendan
