“Pardon me,” I said. “What do you mean, you can’t cash that?”
She replied matter-of-factly, “I don’t know you.”
“You don’t know me because you’re new here,” I replied. “Please get the branch manager,” I requested politely.
“I’ll call her, but you’ll have to fill out this form,” she told me as she reached into a drawer under the counter.
Just then the branch manager came over to the teller. “Hi, Mr. Gilani, is there a problem?” she asked.
“Yes, there is a problem,” I replied. “I’m trying to cash a check and first this young lady said she didn’t know me and couldn’t cash the check, then she said I’d have to fill out some forms to get my money out. What’s going on?”
The manager told me there were some “new rules” they had to follow. She acknowledged she knew me, telling the teller I was okay, but told me I’d still have to fill out the form.
“I am not filling out any form ever to take my money out of my account,” I stated. “Is that a federal law or is that this bank’s idea of customer service?”
“It’s just what we have to do now,” the manager replied.
So I said, very calmly, “I’m sorry – but if you don’t cash this check or if I’m ever asked to fill out a form again when I cash a check, I’ll close all my accounts here.”
I got my cash… and a seriously creepy feeling.

I wish i could relate with the OP, but I have no money. I will say, it would sure be nice if my only worry was what I was going to do with my large sums of money.

It's more like an approach to paperless society where paper money will be eliminated is been proposed actually, this will render all persons dependent to the government and the banking system for their financial needs.
