Coin deposit machines in Berlin?

Post by nyjxwqwn »

Does anyone know of banks which have coin deposit machines? Preferably around Prenzlauer Berg. Thanks.

You can do it at no fee at the Bundesbank: https://www.bundesbank.de/de/bundesbank ... lin-605066

I went to my local Sparkasse with a box full of small change. Was told that their normal Geldautomat has a function to accept them into your account and the assistant kindly showed me how to do it.

That's good to know - I've only seen the commercial machines in supermarkets that take a percentage cut of around 10% for the service. Have been collecting 1, 2 and 5 cents for a rainy day, maybe it's time to cash in my riches! :lol:

Yes, ours started charging last year. I think we get one freebie so we will have a very heavy bag. The problem now is finding the machines that do it since they have closed so many banks and ATM's.

my little Allgäu Spakasse had the machine in which the coins were dumped in, counted and paid to my account. They took the machine away a few year back. Now they put in a bag and it's sent to Kempten to be counted and deposited. What is most interesting is I pay nothing for this.... em... service. I tend to count it first before taking it in. I trust no one. :lol: :shock:

I don't think I was charged for using my Sparkasse Geldautomat (it has to be one of the Ein-Auszahlung ones.) Frau Google tells me that payment or not varies from branch to branch.

It’s free for customers at the Sparkasse here.

I read this one today

Simply pay at the self-service checkout at Rewe or Lidl and insert all the coins you have collected. The machine will then give you your change in larger bills—completely free of charge.

I can see the impatient Rentner behind me rolling their eyes as I insert 200 coins. :lol:

Brilliant idea all the same! Thanks.
