Do ATMs accept $2 bills for deposits? 

Glad you found it too. I haven't done a new video in a bit but I'll be soon be ramping back up. In the meantime, enjoy what's here - there's lots of good videos on a variety of $2 bill topics.

Thank you for the comment! It's kinda like vending machines then, where it's just a matter of being programmed. I was going to ask you which banks refuse them, but you answered it already. I'm curious why you think the ATM did not take 2 of the bills at the first drive-thru I went to. I can understand the later one, where the bills were in poor condition, but the first two were really pure. Any ideas?

@@TheTwoDollarBillDocumentary It's the same reason that they will sometimes reject $20s and such, it just didn't get a good read on it, if you put it in again, it most likely would take it. The way the validators look at the bill, if a crease is in the wrong spot, it can cause it to be unable to validate on some passes.. you have to realize that these bills are moving through the device very quickly and the validator only has so long to be able to verify it, so if it misses, it rejects the bill, and you try again. It also makes a difference on who is maintaining the machine, the validator has a glass in it and considering how filthy money is, it builds up in the system. My company has a policy to run a cleaning kit through the entire cash acceptor at least every 180 days, but more often is better, depending on the use of the machine of course. Short answer is this, had you tried again, those bills would probably have been accepted

Sure has.

Glad you watched anyway. :)

What... deposit your $2s? You should spend them instead.

@@TheTwoDollarBillDocumentary i spent about 12 of them and then got tired of it and brought the other batch in to the bank. People for whom i sued them on, all had to take a double look as i explained to them the $2 bill is a real thing. I also brought in my half dollars to the bank as well.

That was a long time ago. Now you just shove your cash in and the machine sorts it and does the rest.

The Two Dollar Bill Documentary that’s always nice I don’t put money in the bank I either have cash or get it out of the bank since I get direct deposit but I prefer cash so I don’t ever put it in the bank. I still have had no luck getting any $2 bills they all laughed at me at the bank lol.

Bring your phone in next time, cued to this video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-IKj7bxstnMY.html When they laugh at you, show it to them, and then laugh at them when you tell them you're taking your business elsewhere.

The Two Dollar Bill Documentary lol I will try that

He cpuld always file a complaint, and he aldo has video proof of the incident

I've gone through it frame by frame and I think there's a chance I may have accidentally deposited $8, when I thought I was depositing $10. It's a logical explanation for what happened, although I can't be sure. Even if I did lose $2, it certainly made for a more entertaining ATM visit. Thus, I wasn't too disappointed in losing $2 in the grand scheme of things.

We'll follow your lead, Cheddar

You go to the bank and ask for them. Straps come in $100 and $200 packs, but your best bet for getting them is to order $200 worth. Sometimes the bank will have them. If not, they can order them, and the result is a crisp stack of sequential serial-number bills. If the bank says no, they're just being lazy or difficult. Tell them you're using the bills for a charity event or something, and they may be more likely to make the effort to order them.

I don't give away $2 bills. But I'll sell you a couple for more than $2 each if you're interested!

Not sure. It came from the same pile. May have been one I got back. Can you see and compare the serial number?

Why not?

Uh-oh. Did you end up getting credit for the $2 ?

Yes luckily the driver was nice👍

It was worth the $2 to have something more interesting happen in this video.

@@TheTwoDollarBillDocumentary That call would in my opinion have been entertaining though. 😉

I'll have to do a sequel video where I call to complain.

what?

We did a video on that topic almost a year ago to the day: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-p_W1dEOjJ6M.html

but they are printed The last print was is 2020

This channel even addresses that belief in other videos. Two-dollar bills are still printed! With roughly the same amount in production as fifty-dollar bills, even.

I would spend them, keeps them in the public consciousness, which may keep them being printed.

In an ATM? Yes It takes all cash - except some $2 bills as you saw here.

They sure do.

This video is almost 3 years old, yes. What am I supposed to do, delete them all as if they have an expiration date? People still watch them, and I'm still making new content, just not as often as I used to. Thanks for the negativity.

Outdated how? 3 years isn't that long, and none of the statements in the video have been rendered false in that time.
