Good morning all!
I know this has been hashed over already, but I wanted to let everyone know what I found out. Just got off the phone with my friendly Chase bank in Broken Arrow, OK. Talked with an exchange officer who also has invested in the dinar and she said since first of this week they are no longer exchanging ANY FOREIGN CURRENCIES for account holders less than a year old and definitely not for any non-account holders. This is for all foreign currencies and not just the Iraqi dinar. She could not give me an explaination why and said it is a Chase wide policy handed down from the audit department.
I see this as good news although it is hard for me to imagine that the higher ups in Chase would know more than we do. Does any one know why they might know more than us? Do they own the Federal Reserve Banks? If so, then this just might be how.
Any takers on this one?

How about This for a shot
How about this for a shot,
A friend in mine in Las Vegas, NV. that works for a Bank there and she is also a dinar holder. Had mentioned to me that any country that are in what the call a black book( that is refered to as they are not openingly on the forex).
If they are not in the books to exchange the currency, that they are waiting to make sure that they meet all requirements. So if they do the banks will have to come in and reprint there black book, so that they can refer to it. And make sure that the country's moneys are exchangeable.
When they reprint the book their names will be added, and then all they have to do is to push a button sorta speak, to let all of the other branches know they they are fully convertable.

What always interested me about Chase being one of the first to deal in dinar was that they were one of the original banks supporting the Trade Bank of Iraq. The Trade Bank was set up in much the same manner and for the same functions as the trade Banks the were set up in Germany and Japan after WWII. To allow for letters of credit and for the country to finance purchases of goods from outside of the country. So, there may be good reasons why they "know more than us". They were involved from the very beginning. Thank you.

I was wrong about B of A being the one working with the TBI, it's Chase. So they may have some inside info or just lots of clues from that relationship. I wouldn't be surprised if it had nothing to do with that, though. It could be because of the "know your customer" laws. As more and more people have been exchanging dinars it has dawned on them that it could be trouble.
Also, they could be trying to get rich clients and not let them just walk away with their profits after the reval!Last edited by greatstuff; 18-11-2006 at 05:32 PM.

On the contrary, my dinars set off the radar in Seattle... it was in my backpack that you have to put on the conveyor belt, i didnt want to put it in my suitcase....... the guard said it was their "organic" detection stuff ... and asked me to open the envelope the dinar were in to confirm it was just currency. I did, and he looked at all the bills real quick without taking them from the envelope, said thanks , and let me go.
This was on a domestic flight from Seattle to Dallas.... but my concern here is if people try to take their dinars on an international flight .... like to the Caymans or Belize .... and when arriving there, are asked to go into a back room only to have to bribe someone with dinars, or even worse , have them "confiscated" .
