Tellers, what tellers? They’ll turn their business model into Internet banking, with physical locations only for personal service if you’re high net worth. Cash? Who needs cash? Who needs privacy? They’re “temporarily” closed a bunch of branches in the past year, and the closures are becoming permanent.
Pay $25 an hour by firing 75% of those who make less, and save on property taxes/rental fees to boot. Automation, baby.
I’ll stick with a bank that will reimburse my ATM fees and where I can walk to a physical location. I love how cash feels running through my fingers. The delicious feeling of privacy and lack of accountability.
