Thursday, XXXX XXXX I went to the XXXX XXXX WELLS FARGO XXXX ( XXXX XXXX, NC ) to present a check for deposit into XXXX of my accounts. I have checking, savings and stock accounts for the past 16 years and the amount on deposit is about XXXX times the amount of the check, plenty to cover it. The check was from my brother in another state who is totally incapacitated and was endorsed to me for deposit to be utilized for his expenses. The check was issued by a nationally recognized corporation and drawn on the XXXX XXXX XXXX. The teller and bank manager refused to accept this check for deposit into XXXX of my checking accounts. I said that they could put a freeze on the amount of the check for a period of time, call my brother to verify this deposit but to no avail would they accept this check. I took this check to SOUND Bank a few doors away and presented it. In XXXX minutes they proceeded to accept this check and asked what I wanted to do? Ultimately I asked for a cashier 's check or XXXX so I could walk back to WELLS FARGO and cash it to demonstrate what great service a local, XXXX can provide. I collected my money and went back to SOUND bank to open a new checking account for my brother.
