Easier to simply deposit MOs at banks - you can pick local banks that can cut you off if they don't like your activities - don't want to sever important relationships at banks you'd like to keep. |

I just started purchasing Chase GCs, $7500 for this past month over 3 CC.
I bought 6 money orders each in the amount of $499.30. I deposited at B of A for 3 consecutive days , just short of 1k each day. Do I need to be concern? I plan to buy 4 to 6k of money order each month and deposit 1k at a time whenever I go to B of A. Should I be concern? |
Im not a fan of depositing MOs via mobile apps.
Not sure why... maybe its the delay in posting which can be a little longer than a check. I've read that while some bank's app will accept the MO the bank will come back later and say they wont clear it for some reason. For me, its best to just deposit them into the ATM machine. Funds available the next day and I never have to worry about them coming back with an issue. |

How are people able to deposit MOs via the mobile app? I have both a Chase and BoA accounts and I am unable to deposit the WM MOs using the app.

Indeed, dear old Fang likes to kill what doesn't look "normal" and the "S" word is very bad. When a banker says "structuring" or "scheme" you just ain't gonna be feeling the love. Over at BoA Fang hangs out in Risk/Closure. If you ever hear that name you have been excommunicated.

I tried that for about a month. Chase didn't like it one whit. Accused me of "structuring" and said they'd "sever" the relationship if I didn't stop (most of mine were below $3K, but some were $4-$5K).

SO let me ask you this... Why are you worried after the fact? Did you NOT research this before jumping on the bandwagon???

I actually reached out to the relative of a friend at a local credit union. They mentioned that they prefer MOs over a bad check. She didn't seem to know that I would get any bad scrutiny for depositing them.
I'm going to start mixing in some payments I think. Once I get my second BB, I won't have to worry about this as much. |

Yes, I researched this but just looking for confirmation as I am planning on continuing this with B of A :confused:

I'm lucky enough to have multiple Citi and Chase branches near me. Walk in, swipe your card, hand over MOs, get receipt. Done. |
