I've never heard of the video feature.   How do you like it?  I
would assume that if there is a video-teller, then it is not
available 24 hrs.

Which reminds me, I'll probably want to discourage cheques now
too. The only way to process them is to go to a bank. No thanks.

I utilized drive-thru banking a few times, but that was decades
ago, and in a major city.  It wasn't totally bad, but sometimes
the height didn't seem right for my passenger vehicle.
