I got bitter experience with HSBC banking when depositing US bills. They never accept a bill with dirt, ink depreciation or even staple marks! Last time I went to deposit some pieces but they rejected one piece because of staple mark. Then I go and change with a new model bill and deposit again. When they put the note in the fake note checking machine, it rejected the new note I told that girl it's a fake one by joke. Anyway she believed that joke and bring that bill to her superior to recheck. After a thorough check it confirmed as good bill!
Actually bank staff don't know about the new bills?
Is there anyone faced similar situations with HSBC?
In India bank receive any kind of bills whether it is dirty or even tear!

Charma,it's no different at all when it comes to VN polymer notes. If there's a a small piece missing or a taped up tear,the bank teller won't accept it. And if she does,only grudgingly. As you would know,in Cambo,any US bill with even the smallest tear has no trade value based solely on appearance.

It's pretty common practice in Vietnam to only want to accept "new" $100 dollar bills. The gold store where I change money doesn't seem to care though. One time I had a torn $100 bill and she just taped it up, gave me the same exchange rate, and said "It's still worth $100." Although it is pretty rare t find someone like that in Vietnam. When it comes to torn VND's I always use those at gas stations or restaurants. When they say no they don't want it, I tell them that's all I have so either they take it or it's free.

They need to get acquainted with the bills. If so they will receive!

I got 1 experience with the exchange boots on Nguyen Hue street, I received 27 bills of $100from the bank and went to the exchange for better price and 6 of them not "new" and they only bought with 19,000 (compared to 21,130, even lower than the price for $1 bill). I asked why and they said the bills were not in "good condition". I was angry and asked all my money back, then they agreed to exchange with the same price of other. Funny! So, I think just because they prefer the "new bill" and there is no problem with the old and dirty bills as long as it can be useable

How can it possible a bill can keep always 'as new'? Of course, as a negotiable instrument it should handle by many including market vendors Is it possible for fish/food sellers to wash their hands always before receiving a bill to keep it clean?

Isn't that where money laundering comes in? Keep the notes clean.
