Bank of Montreal service rep, Lyle B.enne-
wiesha y ►s how easy it : is to -Use quick
ddposit unit. .
nick deposit, quick cash saves banking time
Bank of Montreal customers in Lucknow
have become familiar with the Quick Cash
teller who serves customers duric'g tradi-
tionally., busy periods of the day. Usually
the bank's domestic unit manager Dorothy
Brintnell actsas quick cash teller to handle
cash withdrawals and cash cheques fast.
Now the Lucknow branch offers a quick
deposit unit which lets the customer make
deposits fast even during traditionally busy
periods of the. day. Located at the end of
the service counter . just behind the'
customer's desk, customers can use. the
special envelopes provided at the quick
deposit unit, complete the deposit slip
attached to theenvelope and drop the cash
or cheque and deposit slip into the
receptacle on the counter top.
Unlike the quick cash, there is no teller
on duty at the quick deposit because none.
is required. The customer can complete the
deposit slip and the extra copy for his/her
records, place the deposit slip and .the cash
or cheque in the envelope and deposit it in
the receptacle without a teller's assistance.
Deposits made before 3 p.m. are credited
to the . customer's account . the same.
business day. • • .
Brintnell wonders if . customers have
been reluctant to use the quick deposit
because they do not understand how to use
it or because they believe a .teller must be
on duty at the quick deposit ' for it to be
open to service customers.
Brintnellsays the quick deposit unit is
also convenient for making bill payments.
A bill normally accepted at the branch can
be paid through the quick deposit unit.
Brintnell . remindscustomers that only
quick cash isavailable at the quick cash
teller. Nodeposits are accepted, Similarly
a customer cannot receive cash from the
quick .deposit unit.
Customers can also make deposits
quickly when the branch is closed or, busy
by making deposits at the 24 hour quick
deposit unit located' on the outside wall of
the bank: Commercial customershave
been making large deposits through the 24
hour deposit service for many . years and
now domestic customers can also use this
service to make deposits to personal
accounts and to pay certain bills: These
deposits will not be processed until the
following day.
Personal account customers can use the
slot marked "envelopes" to insert their
deposits or, bill payments into the safe. A
supply of special' quick deposit envelopes
canbe picked up at the , bank. Each one
provides : information regarding use of the
24 hours quick deposit 'service and there's
even an extra copy of the transaction slip
for the customer's records.
Both of these services for domestic .
customers are available because the bank
is responding to its customers who told the
bank the lineups for teller service were too
long. Brintnell says she and her staff are
eager to serve the bank's customers and
are open to any suggestions.
As a result, the bank now offers senior
citizens' hours on the last two days of the
month when the bank opens early from 9 -
10 a.m. If the last two business days of the
month fall on a • Friday, the .bank offers
senior hours on the Wednesday and
Thursday of that week.
Brintnell says she must remind bank
customers that this service is available to
seniors only to assist in the processing of
pension cheques, which make the bank
staff busier than usual' at this time of the
month.
Brintnell adds that the Bank of Montreal
has an .Infoservice Centre which has a toll
free number for customers to use. Custom-
ers can callto voice complaints if the bank
is not living up' to their expectations or if
they feel a member of the branch staff
deserves special recognition. Inforservice
action forms are also available at the‘bank
if a customer wishes to mail in their
suggestions or ' complaints:
