Here in the US most ATM's accept cash and check deposits.
The ATM's automatically count the cash and it's available in your account balance instantly without any holds...
I don't believe it
in Australia yesterday one of our main banks got rid of all human tellers (in one branch) and they were replace with new ATMs that count all denominations of cash notes and coins and also you can withdraw all denominations coins included. They also have video conference support.
Yes... I've actually seen something similar when I was in Pennsylvania. The video conference "support" was mandatory there, and they used these in all the "pneumatic booths" in the drive-through. When the teller was ready, their face would pop up on a fairly large screen recording all passengers and the rest of your car's interior. The tellers were all in an office inside the main branch and could only interact with one customer at a time, so they watched you pretty intently. I don't think I had or have ever been so creeped out. Never used it again.... started going inside to do basic transactions so I could get a "local human."
