jte70 Posted January 25, 2011 Report Share Posted January 25, 2011 (edited) Yesterday a friend of mine told me our bank will no longer sell VND. I just got an unsolicited phone call from the same bank telling me that they will no longer be able to sell IQD. Now, I think it's a cover-your-butt thing because they said that they didn't want to be involved in what may be a scam or unsafe investment. I thanked them very much for the call - HMM. Anyone else getting word like this? I'm not saying anything about what it means. It is not "news," but isn't "rumor" either so I put the topic in the rumors section.

TNDinarGirl Posted January 25, 2011 Report Share Posted January 25, 2011 My local bank stopped selling IQD as of 10:30am yesterday. They are giving absolutely no explainations as to why. This was BB&T in Tennessee and Alabama, they said that Regions Bank has quit selling them as well. The only bank I know of that is still selling is 5th 3rd In Murfreesboro, Tn. I called yesterday and they said they are still selling but you have to open an account with them in order to purchase IQD....don't know if this means anything or not but IMO, they would need to cut off purchases at least a day before the RV, maybe?

The deal with 5th/3rd in TN sounds like here in Michigan. The Lansing area banks as of yesterday were still selling IQD, even to non-account holders....while banks in say Howell area were requiring to have an account...while a couple FLA 5th/3rd banks that family members went to were no longer selling IQD, and no explanation.

TimS Posted January 25, 2011 Report Share Posted January 25, 2011 Interesting......mind stating the bank? I agree....bank, in what city, state and a phone number wowuld be nice. Thank you I'll be happy to make a call. The deal with 5th/3rd in TN sounds like here in Michigan. The Lansing area banks as of yesterday were still selling IQD, even to non-account holders....while banks in say Howell area were requiring to have an account...while a couple FLA 5th/3rd banks that family members went to were no longer selling IQD, and no explanation. It's probably just a matter of supply and demand vs their business model....is it worth it for them from a profit margin standpoint. It would make sense that smaller market banks to quit or never start because they just don't think they make enough profit to justify the work......visa versa, big market banks may find the profit sufficient to warrant the effort?

diverdown Posted January 25, 2011 Report Share Posted January 25, 2011 I believe the banks who have decided not to sell anymore Dinar have decided to hold onto the rest of their Dinar inventory to cash in for themselves after the RV. Wow, what a great business decision. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find it difficult to believe. Sorry. I don't know about the original poster, but my info did not come as a result of a call from the bank. My brother-in-law went to pick up his latest order of IQD and was told by the teller we usually deal with that they were told as of yesterday they were not to sell any more. Here is the address and phone number, please feel free to call and confirm.

PrinceAbubu Posted January 25, 2011 Report Share Posted January 25, 2011 I wish I lived in Tennessee and could buy Dinar at the bank.. I'm stuck with the websites and having to wire money to them and pay postage. Does anybody know banks in Utah that let you buy dinar directly at the bank? I'd probably pick up some more if I could just buy it at the bank.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
txsrooster Posted January 25, 2011 Report Share Posted January 25, 2011 Do you think it could have anything to do with the "don't take dinar out of Iraq" embargo thing that Iraq instituted? (or whomever instituted it? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TNDinarGirl Posted January 25, 2011 Report Share Posted January 25, 2011 Do you think it could have anything to do with the "don't take dinar out of Iraq" embargo thing that Iraq instituted? (or whomever instituted it? It's possible, but BB&T was getting ours from the Federal Reserve in NY. We go in, purchase say $1000.00 worth of IQD, they send the order off to the Federal Reserve and the IQD came in about 2 weeks later. So, unless the Federal Reserve ran out of IQD, I doubt that the embargo would have any effect on the bank not selling them anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jte70 Posted January 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2011 Likely story banks would make an out bound call other than to collect money gfto Right well since you just got here, you'd really know that I don't spread lies. I'm sorry, but I have never had an unsolicited phone call from my bank about anything and I have been with them for 15 yrs now. I find it difficult to believe. Sorry. If I wanted to make up a lie, I'd be a bit more outrageous than that. I'm probably one of three people where I live who has bought dinar from that bank. It's a regional small town bank in N. Florida which does its business based on relationships and reputation. I know the person who called me but I still think it was a CYA maneuver. Don't believe it, but I don't much appreciate being called a liar by a bunch of total strangers. 9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don Paul Posted January 25, 2011 Report Share Posted January 25, 2011 It is a fact that sooner or later CBI will be gathering up the 0000s and at the least not keep letting them out of Iraq, as I believe is happening now. Slowly putting on the brakes. On another point, most of these 'brokers' are having to buy the dinars from coyotes in Jordan and such. It is also a fact that there were at least 2-3 bank robberies at Iraq where around 800 millions of dinars were stolen, most probably by subversive groups looking to fund their activities and are scalping those same dinars in Jordan. Very possible that the flow has been slowed by powers that be to make these insurgent incomes a bit harder to come by, reflected in the lack of supply here. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hardmoney1 Posted January 25, 2011 Report Share Posted January 25, 2011 I'm sorry, but I have never had an unsolicited phone call from my bank about anything and I have been with them for 15 yrs now. I find it difficult to believe. Sorry. SonOfAtomicVet: I, also, have never been called by my bank (wait a minute - I was overdrawn a few years back, and I believe they called) - but I have never been called by an Attorney like Athena was, not do I have any high level sources that I can tell you about (I'd have to kill you if I told you) to quote. (My dog does really jump high, though!) Maybe I'll be able to quote what he is telling me about the RV. I would love to see the number of Dinar being sold through all the dealers (I am guessing there is a real spike in volume from November through January), with all of this "churning of information". I have only been listening for the last 3 months, and it really seems to be at a crescendo! Lots of Dinar on reserves expiring! Maybe that what all the information churning is about. Hope and pray that Iraq gets their democracy together and brings prosperity to its people! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
