Yes it's safe. Just scope out the other options and ensure it's your best method given your needs (deposit size etc).

Ditto. It can often be the best method both incoming and outgoing, and I've never experienced any problems. The only downside I can think of is time, particularly if your banking clerk doesn't know what she's doing and/or misprints the necessary information. GL Mavs...

This reminds me of the classic thread about the black employee at Bank of America authored by Picoman.

It's safe.

Make sure they fill in the form right.

Or find a bank that lets you do it yourself.

Great find there crazyl. Gives me a migraine just re-reading it. When are you going to jump on board and post your real pic as your avatar btw?
