Hugh, I noted the post in Economics and Investing on 30 April. I would like to share my experience with Wells Fargo which occurred about 20 years ago. I went in to the branch to access my safe deposit box. After telling me that I had no box, we sorted out that they had made a mistake about deducting my annual fees and closed my account.

JWR, With hyper inflation about to hit us soon, do you think I would be better off having my dollars changed into Canadian currency or have minted silver dollars? Thank you for all that you do for us. – G.T. JWR Responds: There is nothing magical about Canadian paper (or Tyvek) currency versus U.S. paper currency.
