THIRD PARTY DEPOSIT FEES!!!!!!

I am today advised that if I deposit cash into a supplier of mine's bank account I will in addition to the bank deposit fees charged them have to pay 1.4% of the value of the deposit. As such the cash deposit fee will be duplicated and represent some 22% of our gross profit. <br> <br> If however the account holder or their employee makes the deposit the deposit will not attract the additional fee. Can the face of the person making the deposit really make such a differance.<br> <br> I am further advised that its because we deposit large amounts of cash? Is this not what banks do for a living?<br> <br> When ask what is considered large deposit the Hayfields Banch manager refused to answer me. I was told that its because we hold up the ques. However the charges levied on the account at present runs at around R3 600-00 per hour of service. (not to shabby)<br> <br> I was further told its because we deposit coin, I simply ask is ABSA a bank or not and is this not part of what a bank does, accept and dispense money?<br> <br> To be advised the day before the implementation of the PENALTY and when trying to find any literature on the ABSA website I find nothing. This is disturbing.
