Introduction: Finally, a Bank That Understands Dinar Holders
For years, Iraqi Dinar holders have faced frustration with major banks refusing to handle foreign currency.
Mrs. B, a holder in Wisconsin, shared a surprising experience with Bank First: a bank that not only accepts Iraqi Dinar but makes the process easy, fast, and friendly.
Her story highlights a crucial point for holders: not all banks are created equal when it comes to currency exchange.
Mrs. B’s Experience with Bank First
Mrs. B recalls:
“I asked if they take the currency, Iraqi Dinar. He said yes, we do. Then he asked if I had an account—I said no, and I’d like to open one. He asked how much currency I had. I told him, and he said, ‘Oh, wow. Can I put you on hold real quick?’”
Within 30 seconds of hanging up, Mrs. B received a call inviting her to open an account the next day.
“I went in, opened my account, and talked with a loan officer. She said, ‘When the time is here, go to a teller and they’ll take care of you.’ It was as easy as that. We were shocked and happy, now we’re waiting for the go.”
Bank First vs. Major Banks: Chase Denies, Bank First Says Yes
Many holders have faced denials from major banks. Mrs. B explained:
“Chase has told me many times they won’t cash it. Done with Chase. Bank First? Here I am.”
The bank clearly knew it was Iraqi Dinar and even confirmed they handle other foreign currencies like the Vietnamese Dong.
“They didn’t deny it one single bit. Every time I called Chase, I got denied. Denied. Denied. This was the first time someone said yes, were friendly, and told me, ‘Come in… go to the nearest teller and we’ll cash it and put it in your account. Bing, bam, boom.’”

Key takeaways:
Not all banks refuse foreign currency—local or smaller banks may handle it easily.

Be patient and persistent—the right bank can make the process surprisingly simple.

[Wisconsin Bank story]
DINAR HOLDER MRS. B: I asked if they [Bank First] take the currency Iraqi dinar. He said yes we do. He asked if I had an account and I said no I would like to open one...He said can I ask you how much currency do you have? I told him and he's like Oh, wow. Can I put you on hold real quick? .
..Came back and said someone's going to call you back today. Not even 30 seconds after hanging up with him I got a phone call. They wanted me to come in the next day to open an account. I went in, I opened my account and talked with a loan officer. She said when the time is here I go in and bring [my currency] to a teller and they'll take care of me and it was as easy as that. And they'll put it in my account. We were like wow it's that easy? We were shocked and we're happy and now we're waiting for the go.
FRANK: Had they ever in the past told you it was a scam?
DINAR HOLDER MRS B: Bank First never did but Chase has many time and they still do here - they're not going to cash it, this and that. So I'm like, all right, done with you, insulted. Done with Chase. Bank First here I am.
FRANK: So Bank First knew it's foreign currency that you want to exchange?
DINAR HOLDER MRS B: Yep. And they said they take that one and they take the dong.
FRANK: That one? You mean to tell me they knew you were talking about the dinar?
DINAR HOLDER MRS B: Yep. They sure did. They didn't deny it one single bit. Every time I would call Chase I got denied. Denied. Denied. This was the first thing that actually said yes and were really friendly and nice and said when the time's here, come on in and we got you...Come on in...go to the nearest teller and we'll cash it and put it in your account. Bing, bam, boom.
