I didn't ask for a recount for a variety of reasons. I'd been there for 20 minutes while the very nice teller broke open all the packages and fed them in. I didn't want to wait around while they did another recount, and frankly it was $0.98.
I'd read earlier in the thread someone had a similar problem and the teller told them the counting is based on weight. Either way you look at it .98/1250 is 0.784% off or 0.00784. I didn't feel like getting into this debate with her.
I'm going to go to a different bank this afternoon to deposit the rest and see what the new machine comes up with.
