Took $750 into local Citi branch to deposit today,
but they said they couldn't take them anymore.
I had done 3 or 4 deposits of $500-800 at
monthly intervals with no issues.
Not sure what set them off. They said it cost
them big money to box them up and ship them,
but I had the feeling it was something else,
as they seemed unusually nervous telling me NO.

I'd find a different back - this on is feeding you a line of BS

....the way a bankers face twitches when he is lying.....
When they asked why so many coins,
I could have said none of their business,
but on a whim told them the coins were from a Poker Game !!
A silly response, but more fun than the truth.
......and these are not CBP people (or are they ??)
I don't care right now....they are my closest bank,
and a few more months at CITI yields another 10K AA.
Don't have the next bank promo targeted yet,
but I am sure one will come along soon.^

Spotted: Coins in Circulation!
Just bought a big chocolate chip cookie at the coffee bar in MSP. Handed the gal 3 coins. She gave me a big smile. I asked "Do you get many of these?" She scooped a handful of $1 coins out of her cash drawer to show me.
Looks like some of you have been here already today!

Dumb question, if I cancel my order, how soon they will release the initial authorization on my credit card?

From my experience, they didn't ever cancel the hold. The card I was using auto-expired it after 10 days since it was not converted to a real purchase. That window will very card-to-card.

Plus, although the bank may not appreciate getting dollar coins, they do like the chance to unload $2 bills! (I also tell them "I like the uncommon money", or some such thing.)
