Why the hell should you have to order your own money....

They make money out of looking after yours, whats the problem with wanting it there and then, damn sure they'd take £2500 from you without you having to book it in

it is wrong having to order your money though.

Surely there must have been more than that put into the bank that day.

its true if you look on any note it says "i promice to pay the barier n demand the sum of ......"
it your money as long as you have it in your account they should give it too you , although i did have the same hassles once with getting 5k off the bank but they soon found it in the safe when i started making a fuss in the branch

Smaller banks "usually" carry around £20-£25k in cash in their safe....... but i'd recon a big city bank would carry alot more
